Dear Prospective Employer:

I am a Graduate student in Electrical Engineering at Villanova University, PA.
Over my two years of graduate study, I have developed a keen interest for
VLSI/hardware design and is one of my strengths. I am looking for a growth
oriented career in the above field and have enclosed my resume for your
kind perusal. 

I have had extensive experience in designing a behavioral model for a 32-bit
RISC processor (DLX) . I have also analysed the performance enhancement of the
above processor with the addition of cache memory. I have also completed the
CMOS VLSI layout of the pipelined datapath for the DLX processor.  Currently
I am working on a project to design a behavioral model for a Digital Signal
Processor.  The above mentioned projects have given me an excellent
understanding of the design issues and concepts involved  as well as the CAD
tools (from Mentor Graphics) used for VLSI/hardware design.

I am willing to relocate to any part of the country. If you would like any 
additional information, please do call me at (215)-688-4766 or email
to ravind@vu-vlsi.vill.edu. Thank you for your consideration and I look
forward to hearing from you.
    


Sincerely,
