Dear Mr. Phillips,

I’m Lina, a final-year student at Austin University with a major in computer science. I’ve completed all courses in computer science, software development, machine learning, and Python with a GPA of 3.85, and am currently learning JavaScript and SQL. I’m excited to submit this letter for the summer internship at LLC Tech, and believe that my education and freelancing experience would allow me to excel in this intern position.

During the past two years as a freelance UX designer, my major duties and responsibilities include:

• Conducting user research and testing to evaluate the UX effectiveness
• Defining interaction models, user task flows, and UI specifications
• Developing and maintaining design wireframes based on user needs
• Collaborating with visual designers and web developers to incorporate a visual or brand identity into the finished product 

Working with 8 clients has allowed me to not only gain hands-on experience but also develop my problem-solving and teamwork skills. If I have an opportunity to take the internship, I'd like to bring these together with my can-do attitude to improve the usability and create the best user experience for LLC's clients.

My attached resume and UX portfolio expand on my skill set and professional experience. Should you need any further information, please do not hesitate to contact me by email or phone. Thank you for your time and consideration, and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Sincerely,
Lina Wilson
