As a Workplace Designer I engaged with dealerships selling architectural walls to help drive business by defining needs and creatively finding solutions.

In this role I managed Revit content creation for Allsteel furniture product portfolio, developed SketchUp standard work for Allsteel's furniture Typicals Gallery, and trained internal and dealer design teams on SketchUp. This was also the start of my software development testing experience for Beyond Designer, a Revit plug-in for architectural walls specification and visualization.

Worked in collaboration with the sales team to deliver cohesive solutions in furniture and office design. I helped to drive story- and solutions-based sales over features and benefits. Primary responsibilities included space planning, project programming, client engagement, product specification, materials & finishes selection and showroom refreshes.

Developed workstation typicals and furniture solutions for corporate clients and bid opportunities. Studied workplace trends and ergonomics. Project involvement included NeoCon showroom layout and messaging, Acuity task chair design and Dubai & Greenbuild trade show booth design.
