Summary

I am a highly adaptable and determined professional with a diverse background in customer service, project management, and interior design. With over three years of experience in the service industry, I have developed excellent communication and problem-solving skills, and a strong ability to connect with clients and meet their needs. In my current role at an exterior company, I manage project plans, organize detailed information, and ensure accuracy in invoicing, all while demonstrating exceptional organizational and multitasking abilities.

As a self-taught interior designer, I have honed my skills in creating mood boards, revising plans, and developing tailored designs that reflect client preferences. My ability to learn quickly, work independently, and adapt to new challenges has allowed me to build a small but growing portfolio and establish a strong reputation in the design community. My determination to continue learning and pursue formal education further strengthens my commitment to excelling in the housing and design industry. I am eager to bring my passion for design, strong work ethic, and collaborative approach to a dynamic team.
