Dear Sir or Madam,
Thank you for the opportunity to apply for a position with your company. My degree in Public Relations and Digital Media Productions as well as my public relations, event coordination, and presentation experience make me an excellent candidate in today�s media rich world.
In my internship with the City of Kansas City, I was a self starter working on multiple projects such as producing four videos from brainstorm to final production and creating a new template for the parking website. In these tasks, I had to multitask and prioritize what needed to be done in a three month deadline. In my position with the Cleaver Family YMCA, I multi-task constantly by checking in people and answering the phone at the same time. As a Health Specialist intern, I
prepared a presentation regarding Health Literacy and Coverage to Care to an audience of
interns and officials in the agency. As well as put together a media list for the newspapers in a four state region about their healthcare interest. Where I learned to excel at copywriting and proofreading, was in my position with KMOS because one of my tasks was to write, edit, and proofread articles for a programming guide.
Additionally, I have gained extensive knowledge in presentation and event coordination through school officer positions. I also have learned effective communication and human relations, and received a certification in Dale Carnegie�s five drivers of success. I�ve completed multiple media productions using Final Cut Pro, Adobe Premiere, Audacity and live studio productions. While interning with Johnson County United Way, I created press releases to inform the public of events and assisted the director in implementing many community events. I completed the Transitional Internship Program at Hope Faith Ministries in February 2018. My responsibilities included working on various public relations and marketing projects, creating social media content using Canva and other design tools, writing press releases to inform media outlets of upcoming events.
I would welcome the opportunity to put these skills to work with your company. I look forward to hearing from you in the near future.
Sincerely,
DeAnn D. Warren
