Subject: AT Master's Candidate Looking For Opportunities<br>
<br>
Good morning everyone,<br>
<br>
My name is Michael Boyce and I am currently a Master's Candidate in Computer Science with a specialization in AT at Georgia Tech. I am writing because I am graduating in May and I would like to focus on AT as a career. I have been applying to positions posted via RESNA, I have reached out to my vocational rehab, my school career counseling office, my current internship supervisors, and I have interviewed through the Workforce Recruitment Program through ODEP. I was wondering if anyone knew of any available opportunities, or contacts that I might reach out to.<br>
<br>
I don't want to clog anyone's email, and I wouldn't be posting here if I had not tried every option that has been passed my way. I do apologize for any inconvenience. I have attached my most updated resume.<br>
<br>
Thank you very much for your time.<br>
<br>
Respectfully,<br>
Michael Boyce<br>
