Candidate Statement

Design has a profound impact on people’s lives – it shapes experiences, creates community and brings people together in meaningful ways. As an emerging interior designer, I have personally benefited from the support, resources and events organized by ASID CA Peninsula. The organization has been instrumental in my transition from school to the professional world, equipping me with the knowledge and connections needed to navigate this industry. Now I want to give back by serving as Finance Director.

In this role, I hope to support the chapter’s ability to continue offering valuable programs, scholarships and networking opportunities. I believe that thoughtful financial planning plays a key role in sustaining and growing these initiatives. My goal is to contribute in a way that helps ASID CA Peninsula remain a strong resource for designers at all stages of their careers.

Beyond financial management, I am passionate about fostering collaboration and strengthening our design community. I want to ensure that emerging designers, like myself, have access to the same resources and support that helped me grow.

Serving on the board would be a meaningful way for me to contribute my skills while also learning from experienced professionals. I am excited about the opportunity to give back to ASID CA Peninsula and help ensure its continued success.

Thank you for your consideration.
