Intern Spotlight: Addie Welch

Addie Welch has always loved creative thinking and design.  She Addie Welch lives in Robbins, NC with her husband and son and is soon expecting the arrival of a baby girl in August.  After a degree from Sandhills Community College and working as a draftsman for several years, she wanted to work on the creative side of the industry and knew that Randolph Community College was the perfect fit.  Her career at RCC has opened the door to a great opportunity work as an intern with RCC Interior Design Graduate, Marta Mitchell Interiors in Greensboro, NC.

           

It is an exciting experience everyday at Marta’s office, making it exciting to see what comes next.  Over the past couple months Addie has had the opportunity to assist with almost every stage of design.  She began by assisting in initial measurements and creating a CAD drawing.  Marta has also given her the opportunity to visit job sites and see the installation process.  Currently she is working on two very fun projects working on the selection process.  One project is an entire house that has been renovated and other clients are moving into a new space.  Addie has had the opportunity to make the furniture selections and assist with picking out fabrics for both projects.  She is also in the process of developing 3d models of both spaces and hopes she is there to see the actual project come to completion.

Marta as been a great supervisor to Addie and has really taken this opportunity to teach her as much as possible about the field.  Addie is grateful to have the chance to learn from such a distinguished designer with a unique style and is excited what the future will hold.
