INTERIOR DESIGNER
San Diego, CA------------ ------------
PROFILE
Looking to establish myself with a company that specializes in residential, commercial, or hospitality design. I am eager to enhance projects and support a team with the work abilities I’ve developed. I would contribute a positive and forward thinking mentality to all projects. I am naturally an enthusiastic leader that will contribute to a team of professionals with an innovative look at design. Punctuality is one of my top objectives in my professional and my personnel life. I put everything into my work, to be sure it is never unnoticed. I love achieving goals while setting new goals for future projects. My focus is always about having fun and enjoying what I do, all while meeting the clients exceptions. I love decorating, crafting, building, and design.
