Hi
Alex
,
I
’
m
writing
to
express
my
strong
interest
in
the
Summer
2026
UX
Design
Internship
at
NovaPay
.
As
a
junior
at
the
University
of
Michigan
studying
Cognitive
Science
with
a
minor
in
Design
,
I
’
ve
spent
the
past
two
years
building
a
foundation
in
human
-
centered
research
,
interaction
design
,
and
front
-
end
prototyping
.
Your
recent
series
on
accessible
fintech
interfaces
resonated
with
me
deeply
.
I
admire
how
NovaPay
strips
away
complexity
without
sacrificing
trust
—
a
balance
I
strive
for
in
every
project
.
Last
semester
,
I
led
a
team
of
four
in
redesigning
the
campus
event
portal
,
improving
task
-
completion
rates
by
34%
through
iterative
usability
testing
and
a
refined
information
architecture
.
That
experience
taught
me
that
great
design
happens
at
the
intersection
of
empathy
and
systems
thinking
.
I
’
m
proficient
in
Figma
,
Sketch
,
and
HTML
/
CSS
,
and
I
’
m
currently
expanding
my
research
toolkit
with
mixed
-
methods
studies
and
accessibility
auditing
.
I
’
m
available
to
work
from
May
12
through
August
28, 2026,
and
I
’
m
happy
to
work
remotely
or
relocate
to
San
Francisco
.
I
’
ve
attached
my
resume
and
portfolio
for
your
review
.
I
’
d
welcome
the
chance
to
discuss
how
I
can
contribute
to
NovaPay
’
s
design
team
this
summer
.
Thank
you
for
your
time
and
consideration
.
