About 

My name is Muta Florence Chokani and I recently graduated with a Master of Architecture degree from Florida A&M University, December 2012. Currently, I am seeking an employment opportunity as an Architectural Intern; therefore, I would like to inquire about internship opportunities at 1x1 Design.

My belief in creating architecture that expresses client’ vision, my desire to design unique solutions that significantly contribute to the environment, my enthusiasm, positive energy and skills, together with the solid educational foundation I possess, will be an asset in contributing to the overall growth, productivity and success of your organization. I am confident that I would be a great addition to your team. I will strive to be extraordinary and committed in doing my part to enhance your excellent reputation and values.

I am a highly motivated, dedicated and focused individual with an outstanding character, genuine enthusiasm and the ability to multi-task, prioritize, and manage time effectively. I am able to communicate design concepts technically through Revit, AutoCAD, Sketch-up, 3ds Max, Adobe Photoshop and Microsoft Office Suite; I possess a strong educational background in the production of construction drawings, ability to build physical models, strong rendering, design and graphic presentation skills. I understand the design process of architecture as well as having knowledge of building codes, construction materials and methods. I am a fast learner with a positive attitude, strong verbal and written communication skills, strong organizational skills, an outstanding work ethic and the ability to work collaboratively in a team environment.

I have a strong interest in learning about building design, construction and project management. I believe hands-on knowledge is the only way to increase my skills and I hope to find a firm that will give me the opportunity to learn and grow.

Becoming a registered architect and a LEED accredited professional is my main goal; therefore, I would like to be on the path to licensure when the opportunity arises.

I would like to kindly request an opportunity to talk with you to get your insight and suggestions on where my skills and abilities would be of the greatest value to your firm. Please find the link below to my resume and portfolio of work that provides full details of my qualifications.
