Dear Hiring Manager:

I am a driven, goal oriented individual with a degree in Broadcast Communications with an emphasis in public relations and sports media. Now I am looking to use the knowledge and experiences I have gained over the last few years to begin the next phase of my career in the field of sports journalism.

I am a senior at the University of Mississippi and have interned with ESPNU, WLBT news station in Jackson, MS and RebelVisionU. While working towards my degree I have taken courses in editing, advertising, promotion, reporting, production and was also active in the Ole Miss greek system. I have worked with ESPNU and Rebel Vision as a reporter, editor, and production assistant. I am also the creator and host of The Ladies Locker Room sports talk show. During my time at Ole Miss I have taken on numerous responsibilities, gained an understanding of production and on camera work. I have freelanced with ESPN for the past year and most recently worked the BCS national Championship and Sugar Bowl in New Orleans, LA. I am an extremely creative, productive and driven individual.

I have attached my resume, which details my qualifications. I very much appreciate your time and look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

Tiffany Boyte
