    To Whom It May Concern:

    I had the opportunity to hire Matthew Cannella as the communication intern for Sea Turtle
    Conservancy in 2009. His work was an important contribution to the annual Tour de Turtles
    educational event. Matt also focused on strategically growing online support for sea turtles
    among leading social networking websites.

    From day one, Matt immersed himself in Sea Turtle Conservancy’s mission and culture. He
    diligently conducted research before undertaking any assignment and, in the process, became
    very knowledgeable about sea turtles and conservation efforts. This lent weight to his
    contribution as an intern, allowing staff to entrust him with several projects.

    Matt was responsible for Tour de Turtles media and public relations outreach. In particular, he
    focused on using social networking to help raise awareness and garner support for sea turtle
    conservation programs and the organization in general. This resulted in an increase of support
    and funding for the Tour de Turtles program.

    Additionally, Matt’s dedication continued after his internship. He has volunteered his writing and
    editing skills for several projects, including writing a grant in support of Tour de Turtles.

    Matt’s commitment to quality work is exemplary and makes him a great candidate for any
    position focused on communications. He is a team player and energetic, which contributes
    greatly to his work ethic.

    If you are interested in speaking with me further about his work with Sea Turtle Conservancy,
