I am Bernadette Cornejo, a graduate of Bachelor of Science in Architecture in Manila, Philippines.I have experienced working from different architectural and engineering offices. Handling responsibilities of architectural design from concept to construction phase, researching all the codes and standards that would be needed for the project, attending meetings and estimate as well.
In the Philippines, I had worked part time to our family business, doing full time job with my regular job and attending to my food business all at the same time. Moving here in the US, I did not stop improving and learning codes and standards. I start my Architectural business and randomly accepting residential and commercial design. I enjoy and love what I am doing. Bringing fulfillment in the field and satisfaction to clients is worth it.
On top of doing business, I also maintain a full-time job that keeps me focus on my goals and feed me more knowledge in life and at work. I respect the people I work too and love what I do. I am very dedicated to any job entrusted to me, I learn very fast and can adopt to any work environment.
Please check my resume and pdf samples of my work to review my credentials and detailed experience. Thank you for your consideration and I am looking forward in hearing from you soon
