To whom it my concern,
My name is Jason M. Barden and I am a graphic designer out of
Colorado Springs. I am currently attending school at Colorado Techni-
cal University for “Digital Media Design” and will be graduating summer
of 2011. I’ve done Internships at, “The Sign Shop as a
designer” and with “98.9 Magic Fm at Citadel Broadcasting”. I am
out-going, hard working and willing to learn.
I am currently interested in becoming a graphic designer and
building a foundation with a well organized and developed company. I
think I would be a great match for any position because I am
experienced in using Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, and Adobe
Indesign. I can multitask in a stressful environment and have great
problem solving skills.
So in addition to this letter I would like to set up and interview for
any position that may be available. I will be able to call for a follow up
on the position in approximately two weeks. I greatly appreciate your
time and consideration, I will keep in touch.
Sincerely,
Jason M. Barden

To whom it may concern:
I would like to take a minute to tell you about one of Magic FM’s best kept secrets! Jason
Barden interned with Citadel Broadcasting Colorado Springs from August 2009 to July
2010, & was our go to guy when it came to on-site promotions for 98.9 Magic FM – KKMG
Jason was an absolute asset to the organization & always went above & beyond the call of
duty! His attention to detail & organization proved to be key to his success with our organi-
zation…
“J” was very punctual & always ready to assist. In a short time, he became a member of our
close-knit radio family. Putting his outgoing personality & sense of humor to work, while as-
sisting in executing dozens of Citadel event/promotions in the Colorado Springs market.
Jason Barden will be a true asset to any organization & will always have a home here with
