Open letter to prospective employers,

Why me? I have a diverse background with an extensive skill set. I am versatile, flexible and dependable. I handled two jobs at my previous employer. If you would like to hear more adjectives describing my abilities, please download my resume and call some of my references.

With more than twelve years experience providing advertising, marketing production and technology consulting for our clients, I am especially well-suited to working in a variety of situations. In addition to completing a B.S. in Journalism from West Virginia University, I have twelve years of production experience on Macintosh computers in tandem with hardware and software technical support internally and for clients of Digital Solutions, an Apple Reseller.

I have coordinated everything from concepts to production for print, radio, outdoor, television and web, along with media sales and placement for Paul/Jay Associates' clients. This versatility has allowed me to develop working relationships with clients ranging from academic (Jefferson Community College), banking (Ameribank), realty (Harvey Goodman Realtor • Builder), industry-leading corporations (Troy Group), entertainment (Craig Karges), non-profit (Oglebay Institute), religious (Diocese of Wheeling-Charleston) and government (Wheeling National Heritage Area Corporation).

Outside of work I extend my enthusiasm for bicycling to community involvement. Recently I was able to secure funding for the local rail-trail to host, develop, and maintain a website, for the Wheeling Heritage Trail system. The site provides exposure for the current trail system and the expansion plans. I was project manager for the site and the site is hosted at my former employer, Paul/Jay Associates. I also volunteered for trail cleanup and expansion plan meetings.
