I recently graduated cum laude from University of Florida in May 2011. I earned a Bachelor of Design with a concentration in Interior Design and a minor in Business Administration. I am also a LEED certified Green Associate. I am most interested in a field that involves and/or requires in-depth research, environmental psychology concepts, and sustainable design concepts. I am also interested in planning, graphics, signage and marketing efforts. I am looking forward to gaining more work experience so I am able to become a licensed interior designer in the future.
