Dear Prospective Employer,

I am a graduate student in the Department of Computer Science  at Arizona
State 
University seeking a creative and challenging position in the areas of
Software
Engineering, Database development and Operating Systems.I will be graduating
in
December 1992 with a master's degree in Computer Science. 

I  have  software  development  experience in a UNIX/C environment and X
window
system  programming  experience  (SunOS, X11R4). I did a Summer Job in
Motorola
which  helped  to  improve  my  skills  in  UNIX networking. I am proficient
in 
Xlib,  XView  UNIX  system  calls  and  libraries.  My  master's  project 
work 
include  development of X Window Based Graphical User Interface for a
directory 
system. This interface is implemented using Xlib and XView ToolKit.

My course work (stated in my resume) at this school has  involved study,
design
implementation  and  evaluation of state  of the art in research and
industrial
problems. I  have  had  software  project  development, testing, and
management
classes  which  have  further  improved  my  project  management  skills and
my
ability  to  work  in  a  group,  contributing effectively at all stages of
the
software  cycle.

Given  an  opportunity  to  work with your company, I shall be able to prove
my 
capabilities by working to the best of my ability.

If you have any questions please call me at (602) 9290840 or contact at my
email
address "puvvala@cs.eas.asu.edu".

Looking forward to hearing from you at the earliest,

Sincerely,

Ravi Kiran Puvvala
