To whom it may concern:
I am submitting my cover letter and resume in hopes of securing a summer
internship. It is my goal to learn more about wildlife and conservation
practices.
My story does not start with huge accomplishments. I was a high-school
drop out that made many wrong choices in life. At the age of 32, with two
children to care for, I decided to go to college. I wanted to show my
children that no matter who you are, what your story is, or how old you
have become, if you put your mind to something, you could accomplish
your goals in life. My dream led me to Clemson University in the study of
Wildlife and Fisheries Biology. It has been a long journey, but besides my
children, I have never been more proud of something I have done.
I have carried an average GPA of 3.4 or higher and continue to work hard
in all of my classes. I knew I always wanted to create an impact on this
Earth and believe that with wildlife and fisheries biology, I can do just that.
I love science and enjoy learning everything I can about nature and
sustainability. I am determined, dedicated, and excited about the things I
am doing. I believe in teamwork and often find that I naturally emerge in
the position of team leader.
I would love the opportunity to speak with you about your position. I
thank you in advance for your time and consideration.
Yours Sincerely,
Crystal Rhodes
