Summary
Thank you for the opportunity to apply for the Design Connect Designer position. I trained at Home Deport Corporate for Kitchen Design and successfully completed that training and continued with success at the Oro Valley, Arizona Home Depot. With the onset of COVID, due to personal health reasons, I moved over to a small design studio and continued to improve my skills on 2020 creating designs that combine style, ingenuity and practically. I am articulate, engaging, positive, and great with clients! This past work experience will show that I am the person you are looking for! Thank you for your consideration.
