I am interested in a design position that would enable me to contribute to the development of your firm’s design portfolio. My education demanded that I consistently challenge each design opportunity to ensure a high-standard of architecture design. My current employment is with a small Brooklyn design firm which has continued to develop my holistic design craft, while I gain a knowledge base for the application and execution of those designs. This small office experience has provided me the opportunity to fully own several design projects and to develop them through each design phase. My work experience includes new and revised design specification, coordination with engineers and contractors, client meetings, and city permit filings. This end-to-end experience has allowed me to gain insight into the implementation process associated with each architectural design. I believe that my passion for architecture matches your firm’s design commitment and marks me as a noteworthy addition to your design team.
