Luana Frederick HR.Franchise Administrator TAF Franchising, LLC 3200 Windy Hill Road SE Suite 175 E Atlanta, GA 30339 Hello Ms. Frederick I would like to be considered as a candidate for the Manager of Store Design and Visual Merchandising as listed on SCAD’s job portal. Being an alum of Savannah College of Art and Design, I received a B.F.A in Fashion Marketing and Management. During my educational years I interned for a aesthetics firm in Atlanta, Ga, Goodrowe Hobby, that allowed me to gain experience in planning and designing a thriving restaurant in the Atlanta mid-town area. From picking fixtures to laying out bar and table space, it was very rewarding to see the finish product. Working under Goodrowe Hobby also allowed me to create window displays during several market weeks at AmericasMart, also located in Atlanta, GA. From there I took visual merchandising on as full task at American Apparel, where I worked as a visual manager in the three locations they have in Georgia, I was recognized throughout the company for my F/W 2015 store design. My images were sent out to all American Apparel’s globally as a guide for other stores to use. I am confident that my skills and talents are what your company is looking for. I look forward to speaking with you and can be reached by the contact information on my resume. Best, Linita Jones
