Hello,
In response to your ad posted on Craigslist.com I am submitting my resume for your
consideration. I'll admit I've had my eye on the Mad Scientist posts I've seen for quite a while
now, but while being great with children, I've never actively worked with them for extended
periods of time. I love science and showing people neat/cool things so I decided to step a bit out
of my comfort zone and apply. This resume is geared more toward the IT field, but gets the point
across.
