301 Technical Writing Team
University of British Columbia
2329 West Mall
Vancouver, BC V6T 1Z4

Attention: English 301 Technical Writing Classmates

Please consider this my application to work in collaboration on projects for term one of UBC’s English 301 course. I am a fourth year history student taking an undergraduate degree and I am dedicated to providing any group who will take me with considerable time and effort in our technical writing endeavors.

For the past three years I have been able to balance my course work with my water taxi business, and have been successful with A or B averages in all but one course. I have experience drafting a business plan using the software LivePlan, dealing with customers, and local governing bodies of the Gulf Islands such as the Home Owners Associations of Ruxton Island and DeCourcey Island. I also have experience in marketing to local newspapers of the Gulf Islands such as the Ruxton Review and the Gabriola Sounder, as well as through social media, and a business website. With this, it is easy to see that I am a suitable candidate to any technical writing group.

Results have shown that I am a conscientious, creative, and highly energetic worker.

My learning philosophy is that it takes effort, not only intelligence to be successful at anything. This philosophy has worked in my experience, and according to psychology it is widely considered as correct.

If you have room in your technical writing team and are looking for someone with work ethic, please to email me at keller_sarah@outlook.com

Sincerely,

Sarah Keller
