Dear Hiring Manager,

I am submitting this resume in response to your posting on toledoblade.monster.com. I believe that I have the

skills you are seeking and would like to be considered for the this position.

My well-rounded experience is a strong match for this career opportunity. I have worked in design, marketing,

retail, and product distribution environments. I am highly organized and adept at meeting deadlines. I know that

my extensive page layout, print buying and project coordination experience coupled with my organizational

skills will allow me to be a successful member of your team.

As you will note by the enclosed resume, I have worked for the past eight years at the Toledo Museum

of Art; a highly regarded institution which welcomes over 300,000 visitors per year. In my seven years as

Graphic Design Coordinator, I worked with staff members throughout the museum to coordinate design

and production all of the promotional materials, advertising, and invitations for the museum as well as

environmental and exhibition graphics. I solicited all quotes for offset and digital print work and large format

production. I worked with printers, designers, and museum staff to make certain the finished product met

quality expectations and reflected the museum’s high standards. Through this interaction with staff and

vendors, I have realized the value of communication in translating a client’s ideas into a finished product.

I am looking forward to the opportunity to meet with you and welcome the chance to apply these skills and

knowledge to a position with your company.

Sincerely,

Cindi Butler
