Resumé/CV

Objective

It is my goal to become professionally involved with a team of intelligent, dedicated, highly-motivated designers. I would expect this team to push my conceptual and technical abilities to new heights; I shall respond by pushing back. I have a wealth of pre-collegiate experience and am very excited to bring a fresh perspective and a sense of diligence to your design team.
