I am an Interior Design/ BFA graduate from Fashion Institute of Technology.
From my resume you will note that I have gained strong organization and communication skills while being employed at the D&J Urban Concept, LLC where I gained excellent design skills in sketching, planning, site visitation, visualizing, creating and transforming conceptual ideas within interiors as well as creating custom furniture products. In addition, I have also worked at The Tile Shop in delivering consulting and design services to private clients as well as the trade.
My ability and passion for the arts has motivated me to pursue freelance work in product design while in College: focusing on restoration and giving second life to existing unwanted furniture pieces. Ultimately, working for myself has challenged me to pay attention to the finest details, manage responsibility, learn time efficiency and decision making.
I would be very honored to join a design team because I am very passionate and motivated about all aspects of Design and Architecture.
I would love to be able to share my creative ideas, perfectionism for detail, my skills gained at Fashion Institute of Technology and previous work experience to advance and grow with the design industry.
