Robin Alenda

I am a 45 year old woman and mother. I've obtained a wide range of professional skills in my career span. My career objective is to seek and maintain full-time position that offers professional challenges utilizing interpersonal skills, human relations and problem-solving skills. The over-arching skill that makes me an ideal candidate for sales, customer relations, conflict resolution and all human relations is my welcoming and nurturing presence accompanied with appropriate and contextual conversation style that invites and engages clientele, friends and the community. I also love practicing my spanish (almost fluent) through my professional relationships. As a result of my love of connection, people tend to spend time engaging with me and exchanging ideas and thoughts. This lends itself to building unique relationships that remain long lasting and equally beneficial.

I have held multiple professional positions across a wide span of industries. My diverse professional background stems from cohesively strategizing parenting and professional duties. My greatest professional accomplishment culminated in 2015 when I began owning and operating my own interior design business. I worked in that industry for 7 years and developed multiple professional skills spanning an entire company. I was the sole proprietor and grew business and strategized solutions to stream line business and method as business grew. In conjunction with starting my business, I self taught myself architectural design and autocad software.

• Achieved professional acknowledgement within the community, through awards
• Collaborated with team of 7-10 depending on job, in the development of residential remodeling and design.
• Achieved publication in Artastonish Magazine (see links) by submitting art pieces to exhibition selections.

My hobbies are all born from my desire to create, connect and to make things that are aesthetically pleasing. My love of running is a true joy in life as well as a spiritual practice. My long runs have provided solitude, time to think as well as maintained stress and fitness throughout my whole life. Running has saved me at any moment I have felt my lowest and it keeps me steady under pressure. My abstract art developed when I was seeking guidance due to my frustration in my marriage of 20 years, I hadn't realized it, but I was unexpressed creatively and it was stifling my abilities to imagine different possibilities. I felt held back and when I started painting I realized I was exercising free thinking as well. I could paint anything I wanted, there were no rules, no expectations and limitless possibilities for making something no one has ever seen before. Art is my freedom and I love it! Singing has always been a huge joy for me. I sing in my car, with my kids at clubs. Singing is just Fun! Period! Makes me happy every time I do it Recently , in the last six months, I have started singing karaoke in my home town San Ramon (danville more specifically) and have made friends with the, (who I have recently learned is a) local community of people who regularly frequent the same karaoke spots. It has been an absolutely delightful experience. Volunteering with elderly and parkinson patient. My buddy, who I help, is almost 80 and lost his wife last year, he also has parkinsons . When I met him I knew he needed assistance and company so I started helping him and hanging out with him;. I even have started playing hand ball at his gym with him and three other of his buddies. This is also just straight up fun.
