Dear Human Resource Professional:

I am writing to apply for an E-Commerce-Web Site Design, Content Design, Nude Specialty Model, or Graphic Design position. I believe that my experience as a web site manager and graphic designer makes me a qualified candidate for these positions.

I am a college grad with a background in graphic arts, web design, and social welfare. I decided to enter the adult entertainment world 2 years ago because I saw a real need for adult material for the disabled. I want to learn more about the industry. My primary occupation is a web and graphic designer. I specialize in sexy party invitation and greeting cards.

I am interested in working with creative and open-minded adult businesses and photographers who shoot artistic and tasteful adult material. Some of my ideas include shots of me in my wheelchair, in bed, or in my shower. I would welcome other creative ideas as well. Pl ease, serious inquiries only. I will need to see your on-line portfolio and references before I can reply to any e-mail.

Over the past six years, I have owned and operated my own graphic design company and have managed several web sites. I have extensive experience in the use of HTML, which I have utilized effectively to create web pages for myself as well as clients. My design skills include a mastery of Dreamweaver MX, Flash MX, Adobe Illustrator 8, Photoshop 7, Corel Draw 10, Corel Photo Paint 10, Poser 4, and various animation applications on both the Mac and PC. My specific experience includes editing photographs, creating original artwork, and serving the graphic design needs of clients. Projects I have completed for clients consist of catalogs, newsletters, brochures, and event invitations. Through managing several web sites, I have also developed a firm knowledge of Telnet and FTP operations. I am currently running Mac OS 9.2 and Windows NT 2000 on my home computer systems, and I have recently received my certification as a Master CIW Site Designer. Through the administrative demands of my business, I have a good working knowledge of Microsoft Office 2000 as well as Windows 95 and 98. In addition to my Bachelors of Liberal Arts Degree, I have also completed an Associate Degree in Computer Science. I constantly upgrade my skills to keep up with the advances in the computer industry.

In addition to my entrepreneurial experience, I have also been involved in several programs such as a three-month internship in the Communications Department at the Chicago Lighthouse for the Blind. Under the supervision of a senior PR/Advertising Specialist, I designed product and service promotional pieces, updated a resource manual and redesigned its cover, and did web site content research. While I'm not visually impaired myself, I developed an understanding of the issues surrounding accessible media.

I believe that you will find that my skills are well suited for such a position. I would like the opportunity to interview with your firm. Please feel free to contact me by email. I thank you for your time, and I look forward to speaking with you soon.

Sincerely,

William Takahashi
