To Whom It May Concern;
It is my pleasure to recommend Cortnee Young for a position with your company. Cortnee is a perfect example of
someone who is willing to work hard and go above and beyond on a project. I was fortunate to meet her during her
senior year and then work with her during her time as a graduate student.
As a student at King University, Cortnee was a member of the women’s golf team. This required balancing a full
class load with her practice and competition schedule. Despite the challenges of being a student-athlete in a
Division II program, Cortnee continued to succeed in the classroom and on the golf course.
This past year as a graduate assistant, Cortnee found herself filling in for a full time staff position that unexpectedly
opened up in the department where she was working. She continued to be a full time MBA student, while also
helping the many departments across campus with their video and graphic design needs. In athletics, we were
fortunate to have her help on two big projects. She helped us with a video for our Tennis team crowdfunding
campaign and with multiple videos for our university wide Give Day. I was impressed with her skills, creativity and
willingness to try new things. She was not detered by being put into a position of greater responsibility and was a
great asset to each of our projects.
I cannot imagine a better person to compliment your company and staff. Cortnee has a bright future ahead of her
and I look forward to seeing where the future will take her. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact
me.
Sincerely,
Nancye Rahn
