Carolline Cunha

With over 7 years of experience in architecture and interior design, I am a creative and proactive professional with a passion for creating functional and beautiful spaces. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to work on a wide range of projects, including architecture and urban planning design, and interior design.

One of my areas of expertise is interior design, and I have experience in both development and retail. I have worked with various clients to create unique and personalized spaces that reflect their tastes and preferences. In addition to my design skills, I am skilled in software programs such as AUTOCAD, SKETCHUP, INDESIGN, COREL DRAW, LUMION, PHOTOSHOP, and MOVIE STUDIO.

Additionally, my experience as a manager leading a team of 13 employees has provided me with valuable leadership skills, which I believe are essential in any design project. I understand the importance of collaboration, and I believe that my management experience would enable me to effectively lead a team and ensure that all stakeholders are aligned throughout the design process.

Overall, I believe that my diverse experience and skills make me a versatile and valuable asset to any design project. I am excited to bring my passion for design, attention to detail, and strong leadership skills to help bring your project to life.
