IVIERIOR DESIGNER e. folio: August 24, 2015 CHRISTOPHER GAONA CG 9: Thanks for the opportunity to present my credentials. I am a recent transplant to New York from San Francisco and ready for a new challenge. While very proud of the achievements accomplished under my eponymous studio over the past 15 years, I feel it is time for a change in my life and am excited about the possibility of bringing my design expertise to a new team environment where I can grow professionally and challenge myself and others in new ways. Ideally, I would like to find an exceptional design firm culture that shares my passion for collaboration, open lines of communication, and inventiveness. I am seeking a pay range position between $160,000-$165,000 to meet my life objectives. I am open to discussing a base salary plus performance bonus as a way of proving my value. Thank you again for your consideration and taking the time to review my resume and portfolio. Christopher Gaona EFTA01191050
