Dear Sir or Madam,

I believe my experience and solid record of achievement make me an ideal candidate for the position your
company is offering.

I have over eight years of restaurant experience, two of those years in management. As my enclosed
resume indicates, I have successfully managed within three different McDonald’s (same franchise). My
experience includes; general run of the floor, work with tills, counting down tills, putting together deposits,
running reports and stats, general knowledge of food safety, resolving customer complaints, labor and
waste control, and my assigned department was store safety. After I transferred to the Belgrade McDonalds
in MT (as indicated in my resume), the store's profit went up 19% in sales.

Also as I was managing between these restaurants, I was William R. Perkins' personal assistant
(and wife). My responsibilities were; financial management, inventory, editing his scientific papers,
coordinating lectures, production, and maintaining the websites.

In 2006 I started my employment with High Range Designs in Victor ID where I became
proficient in using a Mac, Freehand 9, MX, Illustrator 10, and Photoshop. I just recently had to leave the
position due to receiving a generous scholarship through the Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design.
Afterwards, if funds permit, I plan to study for my Masters in Fine Art and study abroad in Europe. I also
have thirteen years of self taught artistic technique, composition; two of those years were intensive one on
one study in my sophomore and junior year in high school.

In 2008 I moved to Lakewood CO to attend Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design and began
working for Shirt Off My Back in Littleton CO. Although I was hired to insure purchased artwork from
other artists translated correctly onto garments, I also worked within the print department doing quality
control, tagging product, mixing inks, and helped out in the shipping and receiving department as well.

Moreover please feel free to email me with any other questions or concerns regarding my experience.

Sincerely,

Shaunna M. Perkins
