PROFILE:

Arthur Koestler once said, “Creativity is a type of learning process where the teacher and pupil are located in the same individual.” I am an example of this quote for I am a teacher and a learner. Attention to detail, initiative with drive, and commitment to grow are three words that I use to describe myself. I am willing to grow in any area an aspect that I work in. When given a task I finish that task and I do it with 110 percent. With my desire to learn I feel I can aspire in any area with my designs.
