A little bit about me

My name is Ismaelia Dejoie. I was born in New York raised in Haiti for 16 years. After the 2010 earthquake, I moved back to NYC where I finished high school. I then went to UVA to study Architecture. I’ve been in DC for 2 years. 1.5 months ago I was working with a Technology consulting firm called Level Access as a Customer Success Manager. Before that, I was working as a Babysitter and a Nursery-Caregiver for a couple of years. I really enjoyed it because it allowed a less stressful environment, and permitted the opportunity to have a good influence on these kids bright minds.
I speak several languages including French, Haitian Creole, Spanish and English. Just like in making art ( feel free to refer to my portfolio), I like to practice patience and good work ethic with my clients and coworkers.
I am very organized, punctual and flexible and I am always available to help in any way when my clientele needs it.
