Personal introduction:

Here is my story. After leaving Marbella Design Academy I went back to work with working for the same Interior Design Company as I was working for before I went to study in Marbella. I was designing night club on the side after work and I was very much in demand. I woke up one day and resigned from the company I worked for to start my own company. I borrowed some money and opened a bank account.
Soon after I was designing the biggest and the best Hookah restaurant and night club in Baltimore. Now it is a huge success and there has been many great reviews on the place and the stle of design.

I later went to many events for interior designers here in DC and met many TV and film and theatrical producers which les to designing staging for houses about to go on the market. It was amazing! I would make $600 a day organizing and renting furniture. In March I worked 7 days and made $4200.00 part time. Now I am very well known in DC and Maryland for my work. I specialize in Modern/ contemporary furniture and I have a very original style.

Later I wanted to do something more then just interior design so I decided to go on job interviews just for fun. I landed a great job with a media training company in DC. They sent me to conventions and business trips to Mexico, New York, and Las Vegas. I worked here full time and do my interior design on the weekends and the evenings. I love my job and still have the oportunity to be creative with interior design. I turned my dreams into reality!

The education that I was given at the Marbella Design Academy really gave me the skills that I needed to be successful at the cutting edges of interior design.
