Hiring Committee
Airedale Community College District
8877 Smith Street, Oldtown, DO 50022
Dear Hiring Committee:
I am applying for the Student Support Assistant position at Oldtown Community College. My 5 years working with the disability
community in various capacities and in different sectors, along with years of leadership and strong administrative/clerical
skills, and a desire to help others succeed make me a strong candidate for this position.
My current position as Ride Leader at Project R.I.D.E, where I provide therapeutic horseback riding lessons to children and
adults with disabilities, has well prepared me for this position. Our riders are of all ages and represent a wide variety of
disabilities, from physical, developmental, neurological, to mental/emotional.
As Ride Leader, I use a variety of skills when scheduling rides, assigning a horse to a rider, and helping the rider get
comfortable with and learn how to ride a horse. My role requires organization, good communication skills, flexibility, and an
understanding of the rider and their strengths. These are skils and experiences that I would bring to the Student Support
Assistant position.
I very much enjoy working with the disability community. I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to continue working with
persons with disabilities by supporting them in pursuing an education.
Thank you for considering me for the Student Support Assistant position. My resume is attached for your review. If you have any
questions or need any further information, I can be reached at 021-222-3322.
I appreciate your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Kelie J
