RECOMMENDATIONS FROM LINKEDIN

“Daniel is a cre­ative and skilled inte­rior designer who pos­sesses strong dig­i­tal ren­der­ing skills. He is self-motivated and has a strong design sense.” Novem­ber 24, 2009

Molly Deas, Direc­tor of Inte­rior Design, The Art Insti­tute of Port­land advised Daniel at The Art Insti­tute of Portland

“Daniel is a very tal­ented designer. He is very cre­ative, hard work­ing, and ded­i­cated to his work. Not only is Daniel a great inte­rior designer, he is also a very skilled graphic designer. Daniel is a quick thinker and a hard worker. I was priv­i­leged to work in a group with Daniel and he was a joy to work with. He got his parts of the project done on time and was help­ful when the other mem­bers of the group had ques­tions and needed sup­port. Over­all I feel that Daniel would be an asset to any design team/firm. He is a well rounded designer that will eas­ily fit in and help out.” Novem­ber 11, 2009

Jane Wilkins , Stu­dent , Art Insti­tute of Port­land stud­ied with Daniel at The Art Insti­tute of Portland
