Dear Susan Keller:

I am applying for the Environmental Outreach Associate position at your company. I have
thoroughly looked into the program and admire the what the company stands to do and the work
that has been and is being accomplished.

The Environmental Outreach Associate works to implement the Charlotte Harbor National Estuary
Program’s Comprehensive Conservation and Management Plan, through leading monthly citizen
science activities and provides research and writing support for science and public engagement
materials. In my career as an undergraduate student, my passion has only grown stronger to the
reason I am pursuing my Environmental Science and Policy degree and my course work has been
centered around Wetlands, Geographic Information Systems (ArcGIS) and a focus on public policy
and administration. I believe that with all the knowledge I have collected and my organizational
skills it will help be an additional advantage to the team.

I am requesting an interview, to discuss the position further. I will be more than happy to follow up
within two weeks through email, regarding the status of my application. Please feel free to kindly
contact me with any question by phone, (813) 420-7342, or by email, Yanezm@mail.usf.edu. Thank
you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Melissa Yañez
