2010 Resume for Sponsorship
General Information:Name: Melissa Ann Appel
Age: 27
Location: Kansas City, Missouri
Occupation: Administrative Assistant / Full Time College Student(Architecture).
What I can do for you:
You want your company to get noticed and I know how to make that happen. There are few women in road racing, and those that are good at it, can't help but receive attention! I am a very friendly and outgoing person. Being a 4.0 college student has taught me a lot about responsibility and respect. I know how to behave with proper etiquette, but realize when to turn it up to be energetic and motivational! I will be the perfect girl to represent your company with the best of attitudes and admiration! Support me and I will give back by putting my bikes on display at your shop, wearing your logos on me and my machines, and passing out fliers with your contact information at my race/NESBA events. With over 20 events attended each year, I will absolutely mainstream your name to crowds of sport bike riders. You name it and I will figure out a way to make it happen!
