Summary

I have honed strong organizational and problem-solving skills that enable me to manage tasks efficiently and effectively. My growing passion for design has led me to develop skills in tools like Figma and Photoshop, and I am eager to apply my creativity and technical abilities in a design-focused role. I am particularly interested in combining my administrative expertise with design principles to create visually engaging and user-friendly solutions. I am now seeking an opportunity to transition into design, where I can continue to learn and contribute to innovative projects.
