Dear whom it may concern,
I have gained valuable experiences by participating in events around Toronto such as the production and design of the décor for CANFAR’s Bloor Street Entertains After party at the ROM, also for the Design Exchange Gala, and the setup for Bells Celebrity Gala and many more remarkable events.
My event production to the on site execution and strike experiences will be beneficial to your company, as it reflects that I have exceptional collaborative and stress management skills. By going through the whole production of a large event I have had to learn strong problem solving and time management skills. These are necessary traits I possess by being exposed to many time crunches and difficult working conditions. I have demonstrated in endless creativity and ideas and take pride in my work.
I would appreciate the opportunity to make a substantial contribution by exploring the event industry through your company. I welcome the opportunity to meet with you to further discuss my candidacy.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Stephanie Lynn Johnson
