<p>I recently graduated Hartwick College where I received my Bachelor of Arts in both Literature and Creative Writing. &nbsp;</p>
<p>I feel that my threeyears spent editing student papers in the Writing Center, as well as teaching remedial composition at Hartwick has allowed me to gain the substantial experience this job requires. You will find I am a hard worker and often go above and beyond what my tasks necessitate. For example, I petitioned the English department for the allowance to write two theses rather than the required one. I was the first student to take on such a fete in Hartwick&rsquo;s history. Due to this accomplishment, I was able to complete fully both a Creative Writing and Literature focus allowing me to double major in English.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>Additionally, my many roles as a student leader gave me opportunities such as:&nbsp; oadvertising to diverse groups&nbsp;</p>
<p>o&nbsp;&nbsp; fundraising <br />o &nbsp; creating and managing a budget&nbsp;<br />o&nbsp;&nbsp; managing teams of students&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>I was also nominated to compete to be a student speaker at Hartwick&rsquo;s 2015 Baccalaureate, which allowed me to participate in a speech contest between the top 16 students of my 300 student broad class. In this highly competitive competition, I ranked 3<sup>rd</sup> out of the 16.&nbsp;</p>
My many leadership roles have taught me how to take initiative, and the roles&rsquo; diverse backgrounds have taught me how to market to different audiences. If hired, I feel I would prove to be a hardworking, self-competent employee who would be ready to learn new skills.&nbsp;
