Dear Angel Ortiz,
I have been an avid member of our youth ministry for the past three years. I have been involved with confirmation, retreats, mission trips, peer ministry and showed my leadership abilities through being captain for last year’s peer ministry. I have heard that you are looking for a admin assistance to help you, due to your gradual enter back into the missionary. With the experience I have gained from my yearbook class such as computer programs, professional emailing, and sales, I believe I could properly fulfill the position. Also I have personal experience with our youth ministry from the 18 years attending Blessed Trinity therefore it would be a smooth transition on my hiring.
Throughout our ministry I have been around to witness your daily responsibilities and I have the knowledge of knowing what you need to do to get things completed. If I were your assistant I could help you organize retreats, meetings, and contact the peer ministers, priests, the bishop and anyone else needed to be contacted. I would be capable of making your phone calls, organizing your notes, helping organize and execute fund-raisers, all to help reduce your stress level.
Along with being your assistant, I could also be your treasurer. As I have attended the 2010 Chattanooga, TN, mission trip, the 2011 Atlanta, GA. mission, and the National Catholic Youth Conference in November, I have learned the process that we use to distribute and fund-raiser money. If I were your assistant and your treasurer I would be trusted to count the money after fund-raisers, calculate what money is needed, brought to the bank, cashed checks and deposit money.
All in all, I believe I am qualified though my experience on yearbook staff and an avid member of our youth ministry to be your personal assistant. I hope that you consider this application and contact me when applicable. Thank you for your time.
Respectfully yours,
Christie RieckEnclosed: Resume

The past three years of my life, has consisted mostly of yearbook. Gradually this course became more and more promenade in my life. It went from a being just a class that intrigued me, to a part of my daily life, to my passion. My love for writing started in third grade when I wrote a bell work entry about my sick uncle. That entry moved not only my family but also my teacher. After she had read that, she began to read to the entire class my daily entries. Seeing that she saw talent in my writing, was what had inspired me to love the form of putting emotions, thoughts and ideas into words. But at that time I didn’t want to over analyze my third grade talent, so I begun to push writing away. But fortunate for me, my mom saw my talent still there. So she personally signed me up to take journalism one my sophomore year: then these last three years have blossomed. It has most definitely been the most stressful times of my life with deadlines, designing, helping others, getting everything done, and in the mix contributing to the entire book by creating an entire section. After the months of designing, writing and re-writing, I believe over all that I conquered what I had to get done and finished it well enough to satisfy my liking. But after yearbook, and high school, I would like to major in journalism. Seeing that my work is truly good enough by getting the second place certificate for my feature writing last year, that assured me that I really can be a decent journalist; that I shouldn’t be intimidated by the field. Therefore I hope, if not journalism, at least writing stays in my life and my future. Writing is my outlet and my one thing I feel confident in. But I will have to wait and see what God brings me too.
Personal Essay
This year has by far been the most nerve-racking, stressful year of my life due to journalism. Not only was I a new editor that was just beginning the actual techniques of our programs, but our staff and yearbook sales were its own stress all together. Starting off with poor communication skills was a struggle I think all editors and yourself can agree on. But then once we fixed that problem, we had to focus on increasing our book sales. I believe I did everything in my personal power to sell books. Whether I was wearing a banana suit, peer pressuring kids in the hallways and my classes, texting everyone in my phonebook, and shouting in the parking lot, “buy your yearbook” I think I covered about almost every way we could advertise. Then once we reached our goal by a miracle, I had to begin the months of hard indexing, and creating the index itself. It was very time consuming, tense and pressuring. But because of all of those obstacles, I learned so much. I learned how to advertise in ways that people will listen, how to manage my time, and how to simply use Photoshop and InDesign which will highly benefit me in my future. So despite the countless hours I spent on everything in yearbook, I wouldn’t take it back for the world. I loved being not only an editor this year, but just being a part of our staff. We had a great group of people this year and once they truly gave it their all, we did an amazing job. I look forward to seeing the turnout and comments on our book and hope that people can appreciate everything that we did, as much as we do.

My most significant piece of work throughout this year would be my deadline two. For deadline two I wrote a profile story about a junior model Olivia Rizor. I wrote the story explaining her life as a model and everything she has won, modeled in/for, and the steps she takes to prepare for a job. I believe this is my most significant piece because it was such a stressful page to put together with the conflicts we had with using her pictures that once it was shipped and finished I was proud of it. It took me about till dead line day for me to find her photographer, find his number online, call him, get his approval and get an email from him approving our use of her pictures. Before hand, I couldn’t get in contact with any of her other photographers or companies that she had shot for. Therefore that led me with no pictures I was able to use. But now that I can see the page in the book and seeing how well the whole spread looks, I ended up very pleased. The body copy and my secondary coverage wasn’t too much of an issue but just overall I’m very proud that I put the page together and that the by line is mine.
Reflection 1
page 117senior Rose Lopez said.
[1] smile with your eyes. Rizor angles her face at the right degree to make her eyes speak a million words. “Even though I hated this picture it led me to get my agent,” Rizor said. [2] blend in. Wearing a natural arrangement of clothing and jewelry, Rizor poses for her photographer, Eric Sutton, who was shooting for her portfolio. “[This is] my favorite picture but taking it wasn’t so much fun because of [all the] bugs and snakes in the field,” Rizor said. [3] fierce. She encloses the door frame while posing for her photo. “This picture was really laid back and not time consuming. All I had to do was stand against the door,” Rizor said.
She stood in front of the theme designed set wearing clothes stitched to specifically fit her body. Listening to the critique of the photographer, she focused on her facial expressions, her eyes and the position of her body, hoping for the perfect picture.
“No one teaches you [how to model], you just do it,” junior Olivia Rizor said.
Rizor first began modeling at the age of 10 when she and her grandmother were approached in a mall by a professional photographer. The department store asked her to model sweaters. This event led Rizor to her first paid job, a show for Matrix hair products.
“[Modeling] is something I feel I’m
good at and I was never really good at sports or singing or cheerleading and all the stuff everyone else does for extra activities,” Rizor said.
Rizor never expected modeling to lead into something serious such as her job or even a passion, but that quickly changed when Rizor’s agent discovered her. Once she had an agent, her jobs quickly enhanced.
“It really depends [on how often I model]. I can have two jobs in a weekend, back to back, or a month apart. It’s really unexpected unless it’s in the ‘modeling season’ from May [through] June and December [through] January,” Rizor said.
Since beginning high school, Rizor had 10 modeling jobs. She was a
student discovered; hobby turned into career and passion
dreamrunway model in Harriet’s Fashion Week charity show, as well as a contestant for Miss Florida where she competed as Miss Kissimmee.
“It was awful preparing for [Miss Florida because] it killed all my free time, but the experience and competition was amazing,” Rizor said.
She modeled for well-known companies such as Nike, DC Snowboarding and Juan Colon from Project Runway, along with other smaller name brands like Liz’s, Diamond and Casa Nova.
“Modeling [has] opened a lot of doors for me. I like how it keeps me looking a certain way, how it’s boosted my self-esteem, and it’s something I’m good at,” Rizor said. [christie rieck]

To ensure her nails were presentable, Rizor had them done at Sunlight Nails.
To keep in shape and healthy, Rizor would go to the gym everyday before a job.
Rizor made sure her hair was cleaned and prepared with quality hair products from her stylist.

TEENAGE
Deadline three was honestly the hardest most frustrating deadline I have ever had in the two years I have been apart of staff. It was exceedingly difficult for me to find angles for six different people, who I have no idea who they are, and trying to connect a ceramic piece they created to a part of their life. Getting good information from people is always a hit or miss. Some people will give you great answers that will make the page so much more enticing to read, and others will give you almost nothing to work with; even if you drag it out of them. That was one of the problems with my page, three of the people gave me nearly nothing to work with while the other three gave me something more to grasp to. Then once I wrote the stories, it became a problem being able to get all of the ceramics from the people at school in at the same time. Therefore the picture I was supposed to get of the table with all the pieces on the table was nearly impossible. Some of the pieces weren’t done, some where too small, and it was really just a mess. So because of all the conflict overall I feel deadline three is a spread I think could use some more work because I don’t like the ending look of the table and ceramics. I think the page looks good in the book but I would still like to clean it up if I had the chance.

This photo attracts my attention because it has a good center of visual interest, leading lines, and repetition. With the focus on the dominate girl, the lines from the surrounding Bravettes lead you to her. Also the repetition of the girls’ poses attract your attention.Bravette practise 11-28_christie020

This photo attracts my attention because of its good center of visual interest and how it uses the rule of third. I like how the focus is on the drummer and how the dominate angle of the drummer isn’t placed in the center of the picture but uses the rule of thirds.chorus concert 10-25_christie0030
I was an asset to staff and the 2012 Legend yearbook by being index editor. I took on a large responsibility this year by taking that role. I did everything I felt I could to be the best editor I could be. I helped staffers with designing, I checked all of the names throughout the books on time, made grading my first priority, and helped others when they needed help. Then I was the one to created the index design that consisted of 15 current event stories, cobbed students holding colored-in letters with the same questioned quotes as the folio, and the headline. It was a long month and a half of of me working on it with sleepless nights and hard worked days but it was all worth it. I’m honored to be the 2012 index editor and will treasure that position and memories throughout my life.
Reflection 4
Reflction 5
I feel like our staff faced more hardships this year then we did last year. We had to double our book sales, had conflicts with lack of communication, and there was just something always going wrong. But I think the biggest hardship for me this year was personal stress level. Senior year is one of the biggest years of your young adult life. Therefore it is over-loaded with different tasks to complete. So being editor, captain of my youth ministry, and dealing with senior priorities made me more stressed out then I have ever been. It was difficult balancing all my demands and getting everything done on time. Peer ministry is a very demanding job in itself and balancing that with all of the grading was close to impossible. But eventually I was able to find that balance and finish off the year in both categories strong. So after the experiences from this year, I learned how to manage my time and still be committed to both. I stayed organize, used calenders, check-lists, and made sure I was able to get everything completed and accomplished to the best of my ability. So even though it wasn’t a pleasant experience having to deal with eye-twitching stress levels, it will be a helpful experience for my future.
Reflection 6
My greatest weakness was balancing my schedule between all my commitments. I knew that being editor, everyone will eventually have to rely on you. That you must be available for whom ever needs your assistance before you begin to work on your own tasks. And I believe overall I did a good job overcoming this obstacle of priorities and time commitments by finding a happy-medium between them all. I was able to focus on yearbook when the time was needed, such as when club proofs were in and when I created the index, yet still focus on my grades, homework, and peer ministry as well. The one time yearbook was my number one priority was when I was creating the index. I only focused on fixing it and making it the best I could for about a month. I still have more room to grow with balancing commitments and prioritizing my schedule but I have grown a lot over the past year and look forward to being challenged to excell even more.

[1] smile with your eyes. Rizor angles her face at the right degree to make her eyes speak a million words. “Even though I hated this picture it led me to get my agent,” Rizor said. [2] blend in. Wearing a natural arrangement of clothing and jewelry, Rizor poses for her photographer, Eric Sutton, who was shooting for her portfolio. “[This is] my favorite picture but taking it wasn’t so much fun because of [all the] bugs and snakes in the field,” Rizor said. [3] fierce. She encloses the door frame while posing for her photo. “This picture was really laid back and not time consuming. All I had to do was stand against the door,” Rizor said.
She stood in front of the theme designed set wearing clothes stitched to specifically fit her body. Listening to the critique of the photographer, she focused on her facial expressions, her eyes and the position of her body, hoping for the perfect picture.
“No one teaches you [how to model], you just do it,” junior Olivia Rizor said.
Rizor first began modeling at the age of 10 when she and her grandmother were approached in a mall by a professional photographer. The department store asked her to model sweaters. This event led Rizor to her first paid job, a show for Matrix hair products.
“[Modeling] is something I feel I’m
good at and I was never really good at sports or singing or cheerleading and all the stuff everyone else does for extra activities,” Rizor said.
Rizor never expected modeling to lead into something serious such as her job or even a passion, but that quickly changed when Rizor’s agent discovered her. Once she had an agent, her jobs quickly enhanced.
“It really depends [on how often I model]. I can have two jobs in a weekend, back to back, or a month apart. It’s really unexpected unless it’s in the ‘modeling season’ from May [through] June and December [through] January,” Rizor said.
Since beginning high school, Rizor had 10 modeling jobs. She was a
student discovered; hobby turned into career and passion
dreamrunway model in Harriet’s Fashion Week charity show, as well as a contestant for Miss Florida where she competed as Miss Kissimmee.
“It was awful preparing for [Miss Florida because] it killed all my free time, but the experience and competition was amazing,” Rizor said.
She modeled for well-known companies such as Nike, DC Snowboarding and Juan Colon from Project Runway, along with other smaller name brands like Liz’s, Diamond and Casa Nova.
“Modeling [has] opened a lot of doors for me. I like how it keeps me looking a certain way, how it’s boosted my self-esteem, and it’s something I’m good at,” Rizor said. [christie rieck]

To ensure her nails were presentable, Rizor had them done at Sunlight Nails.
To keep in shape and healthy, Rizor would go to the gym everyday before a job.
Rizor made sure her hair was cleaned and prepared with quality hair products from her stylist.

From reviewing my last years portfolio I was able to compare the differences and growths of my past two years. I have grown immensely in my designing, Photoshop and InDesign skills. To express my InDesign and Photoshop enhance, last year all I used for my portfolio was textured background and a brush. This year I have used pattern backgrounds, cobs, personal photography, speed shoot, anchor points, swatches, strokes, and step and repeat. Last year I wouldn’t have known to use any of that. Now other then shown in my portfolio, having to write 13 current event stories for the yearbook expresses my writing growth and designing the entire index myself also has shown growth. Last year I felt I was good at what I was doing, but this year I feel I have grown so much and learned so many new things that I can use in my future if I go with the mass media/ journalism career choices.

Wearing a natural arrangement of clothing and jewelry, Rizor poses for her photographer, Eric Sutton, who was shooting for her portfolio. “[This is] my favorite picture but taking it wasn’t so much fun because of [all the] bugs and snakes in the field,” Rizor said. [3] fierce. She encloses the door frame while posing for her photo. “This picture was really laid back and not time consuming. All I had to do was stand against the door,” Rizor said.
She stood in front of the theme designed set wearing clothes stitched to specifically fit her body. Listening to the critique of the photographer, she focused on her facial expressions, her eyes and the position of her body, hoping for the perfect picture.
“No one teaches you [how to model], you just do it,” junior Olivia Rizor said.
Rizor first began modeling at the age of 10 when she and her grandmother were approached in a mall by a professional photographer. The department store asked her to model sweaters. This event led Rizor to her first paid job, a show for Matrix hair products.
“[Modeling] is something I feel I’m
good at and I was never really good at sports or singing or cheerleading and all the stuff everyone else does for extra activities,” Rizor said.
Rizor never expected modeling to lead into something serious such as her job or even a passion, but that quickly changed when Rizor’s agent discovered her. Once she had an agent, her jobs quickly enhanced.
“It really depends [on how often I model]. I can have two jobs in a weekend, back to back, or a month apart. It’s really unexpected unless it’s in the ‘modeling season’ from May [through] June and December [through] January,” Rizor said.
Since beginning high school, Rizor had 10 modeling jobs. She was a
student discovered; hobby turned into career and passion
dreamrunway model in Harriet’s Fashion Week charity show, as well as a contestant for Miss Florida where she competed as Miss Kissimmee.
“It was awful preparing for [Miss Florida because] it killed all my free time, but the experience and competition was amazing,” Rizor said.
She modeled for well-known companies such as Nike, DC Snowboarding and Juan Colon from Project Runway, along with other smaller name brands like Liz’s, Diamond and Casa Nova.
“Modeling [has] opened a lot of doors for me. I like how it keeps me looking a certain way, how it’s boosted my self-esteem, and it’s something I’m good at,” Rizor said. [christie rieck]

To ensure her nails were presentable, Rizor had them done at Sunlight Nails.
To keep in shape and healthy, Rizor would go to the gym everyday before a job.
Rizor made sure her hair was cleaned and prepared with quality hair products from her stylist.
