Cover Letter

For the past two cycles I have been interning at Olivia Miller Inc. Olivia Miller is a casual footwear brand that specializes in designing shoes for women and children. I worked under the direction of Deanna Rastvorov as a showroom assistant.

My daily duties ran the gamut. Although there were days that I would come in and make copies for an hour, I experienced a lot of different things. I was taught how to use Microsoft Excel which is a program that has always intrigued me. Another program that I learned was VPR. VPR is an order entry program. Every order that a buyer places has to be entered into VPR. Another popular assignment that I would get was compiling and shipping packages. When a company is looking to buy shoes they receive a sample of the products. I would collect samples to send to company's, take a picture of the items, include necessary information, and then ship it out.

During my time at Olivia Miller I was given the opportunity to get a bird's eye view into a career that I previously had little interest in. I was able to experience things that I normally would not have had a chance to. I received a look into the cut-throat world of business. As I watched the employees at Olivia Miller go after the things they wanted or needed I was inspired. It made me realize that if you work really hard you can achieve your goals.

This experience was unbelievably meaningful. I am grateful that this opportunity was availed to me. I've learned so many things at Olivia Miller that I ordinarily wouldn't have. I am really indebted to City-as-School and Olivia Miller for this amazing chance
