Dear Mr. Scranton:

IÕm writing in response to your advertisement regarding the need for a creative technology professional. I found out about this opportunity from my father who lives in Waterford, New York, my hometown. Based on what qualities you are seeking in a candidate, I may be the person you are looking for.

My enclosed resume outlines my thirteen-year career working with technology. I have held a diverse number of technology positions at a variety of organizations both in a team playing and management capacity. I feel the breadth of my experience fits well with your needs. My current position at The Thacher School as Director of Cross-Media Publishing has offered me the opportunity to redesign the Thacher web site, www.thacher.org. IÕm currently responsible for all facets of the sites design, implementation and maintenance. I have other work samples and web sites that I would forward to you upon request.

Cover letters and resumes really do not give you my full picture. I would like to contact you sometime in the next two weeks to answer any questions you may have and also ask you some questions about the position. In the meantime if you need to contact me you can call me at 805-798-3430.

Thank you for your time and attention.

Regards,


J. Bert Mahoney
