Dear Jo Alcorn

205 Humber College Blvd, Etobicoke, ON M9W 5L7 04/11/2024

I am writing to express my interest in the Intermediate Interior Designer position. As a dedicated professional with a passion for creating thoughtful and quality-designed environments, I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to your dynamic team and work on exciting commercial corporate office designs.

My name is Giovane Paiva, and I hold a degree in Architecture, Urbanism, and Landscaping from Belas Artes University in São Paulo, Brazil. Currently, I am completing my diploma in Interior Decorating at Humber College. With over 5 years of diverse experience in the industry, I have honed my skills in real estate regularization, building engineering, virtual reality, millwork detailing, and retail. These experiences have equipped me with a strong understanding of design principles and construction methodologies, making me well-suited for the role.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a keen eye for detail, organization, and initiative in all aspects of the designer’s role. I have experience working on commercial corporate projects at various stages, collaborating closely with clients to ensure their interests and preferences are reflected in the final design. My ability to absorb knowledge quickly and build strong relationships in the workplace has been instrumental in delivering successful projects and fostering a collaborative team environment.

I have attached my resume for your review, which provides further details about my academic background, relevant coursework, and professional experiences. I am available for an interview at your earliest convenience and am excited about the possibility of joining your team.

Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the opportunity to discuss how I can contribute to the success of your projects and help shape memorable experiences for your clients.
