To whom it may concern,
In June of 2001, I completed my Associates of Science Degree in Marketing Management at Kingsborough Community College with a 3.8 G.P.A. Upon receiving my Associates Degree, I enrolled in various courses at Rutgers University in Camden, N.J. My education has enabled me to undertake various computer, accounting, business, marketing, and even a few law courses. I currently operate various computer software programs on a daily basis. My accounting skills include payroll, deposits, and invoicing, all of which I have put to use for past and present employers. My work experience includes working as a hotel convention manager, a special event manager, and most recently working on-site coordinating various details for pharmaceutical conventions, I believe that my experience in the various facets of event planning will make a significant contribution to your organization. I look forward to meeting with you, and discussing possible employment opportunities. Best regards,
Letoya Coleman
