About
I currently work as a business manager and assist designers for a small interior design firm. I'm looking for a part time job that can use the best of the skills that I've learned over the last 15 years and allow me to be more creative!
Experience
15 years working on the business side of interior design from customer service to billing while also assisting interior designers. I worked for a trade showroom as an office manager for 7 years, but I also helped the designers find what they were looking for. I've since worked for an interior design firm where I still do the office work, but also assist the designers. From selections, to presentations and photoshopping a room together
