Cover Letter

I noticed your company has an employment opportunity for which I might be a good fit.

Attached is a copy of my resume.I am a Senior PMP certified Project / Program Manager with over 20 years of full

lifecycle experience. I possess a unique combination of management and technical skill

sets. These skills include program management, project management, software/database

engineering, and requirements analysis. They have empowered me to provide a very high

level of customer satisfaction within a demanding environment while consistently adhering

to PMI Best Practices and CMMI processes optimizing project cost, schedule, and quality.

I have been instrumental in proposing, planning and executing large-scale projects for

the Air Force, USMC, Army, Navy, CDC, FDA, DoD, DOL, HUD, APA, FCC, local government

organizations, financial institutions and publishing organizations. A wide variety of

management tools including VPMI, SharePoint, Doors, Synergy, Dimensions, PVCS, AllFusion

Harvest and MS Project were utilized throughout the projects. These projects employed

technologies including Oracle Forms and Reports, Oracle Database, SQL Server, DB2, Java,

.NET, ASP, ColdFusion, Flash, PeopleSoft, Crystal Reports, Perl, PHP, and C++. The

majority of these projects reached statuses of CMM level 2, CMMI level 2, CMMI level 3,

and CMMI level 4. Involvement in these projects has gained me the reputation of being able

to quickly satisfy complex requirements for multiple large-scale projects simultaneously,

regardless of the environments, technologies required, or time constraints.
