To whom it may concern,
I am writing to inform you that I am very interested in any positions that
might be available in either the graphic design/ art field, Administrative
assistant or coordinator fields. I have a deep passion and appreciation for
all kinds of work, especially public relations and art. I am a fast learner
and enjoy meeting new people. I am willing to relocate if at all necessary.
I would love the opportunity to be a part of new experiences, wherever work
may lead me.
Currently, I am working at a private boarding school in the northeast
Georgia Mountains. I wear many "hats" and am considered an efficient multi-
tasker. I am the Assistant to the Dean of Students, who is also the head of
the boarding program. I graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from
the University of Georgia in Art Education/ Art. I would like to continue
to enhance my work experience in other places.
I understand if you are not hiring at this time, but please keep my
information on file for any future openings. Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Alexia C. Chandler
