+I am contacting you in regard to the \emph{\position} position and would love to discuss the
+opportunity you have.
+
+I have been involved in software for most of my life, both as a hobby, as well as professionally. I
+have found software engineering to be an excellent conduit for my love of problem solving,
+engineering, and finding elegant solutions to complex problems. I have high standards for quality
+solutions that focus on simplicity, efficiency, and correctness.
+
+While I have an affinity for the Rust programming language, I have experience many other languages
+such as C\#, Python, and JavaScript. I believe my proficiency for engineering, along with my love
+and aptitude for Rust, make me uniquely qualified for this opportunity.
