Currently an Interior Designer (BA Hons), freelancing at Fusion DNA (hospitality design company), with a strong, founded interest in design that comes from always judging and evaluating surroundings and using that inspiration in my work. I approach work with enthusiasm, mindful of what is asked and I set clear targets to ensure all tasks are completed. I was a student representative for three years; I am friendly and a good listener who responds to others diplomatically while effectively communicating thoughts and opinions when there are conflicting views. This essential skill helps a busy, fast-paced environment run smoothly.
