Summary
As a LEED Accredited and licensed Interior Designer with 20 years of experience, I’m a very motivated, dedicated, outgoing and detail oriented professional. Throughout my career I have a demonstrated history of developing long lasting relationships with clients and other industry professionals. In cultivating these relationships, it has provided repeat work and lead to new job opportunities. I value mentorship and the wellbeing of my project teams and find that through transparent management, my teammates take on more ownership in delivering a successful project with me. I’m seeking to join a dynamic team that will offer the same level of passion for design and problem solving that I do and continue to challenge me to be the best designer, manager and professional that I can be, while having an impact on the world through design.
