About 

Proficient, organized Bachelor’s of Architecture grad with an avid search for knowledge with great skills in model making and architectural related computer programs. Paramount outcomes in deadline- oriented projects and also in team effort tasks. Strives for great, consistent quality in an organized and stress free environment to improve the workspace.

 

Ever since my parent’s remodeled their home, I have been fascinated with architecture. This happened in 2004, so for 9 years I have been dedicated in becoming an architect and now I have finally reached my goal. I am a hard working person that understands the concept of working my way up. The journey of working my up to my goals are more valuable then anything else; to me it is all about the experience. I am a hard worker that has a since of humor and always in a positive and energetic mood who also like working in groups and individually. I have received my B. Arch. and looking for any position, I am also fluent in Arabic. I am responsible, hard working and a fast learner when it comes to Architecture, which is a subject that I am very passionate about. I am willing to travel  and broaden my knowledge of Architecture if it is needed and ready to start the next step of my life in the work force.

Employment 

Macy's, Newport Beach, CA, US, Sales/ Stock/ Visual Associate

I was hired to help during the holiday season in the fragrance department with their stock, wrapping and replenishment of their merchandise. After the holidays, the fragrance and cosmetics department kept me on as their stock person; a job that did not exist during the off-season. I am a hard worker in whatever task is handed to me and will do more than what is expected. However, it is not the job that I desire for myself, I would like to put all the hard work that I am currently doing at Macy’s towards a job that I do desire in.
