Dear =this.dear-recipient,

I am writing to inquire about the =this.job-opening position at =this.company. With over a decade of experience in data privacy, engineering, and governance, coupled with a multi-cultural leadership background, I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to the Church’s Global Privacy Program.

Throughout my career, I have consistently demonstrated a strong ability to navigate complex data privacy challenges and implement effective solutions. At Palantir Technologies, I managed the region’s first healthcare pilot, analyzing claims to identify $572 million at risk through 14 anomaly detection schemes while ensuring data privacy and security. As a Board Member and Product Architect at Ricardiam, I developed a local-first, decentralized, AI-enabled system of record for blockchain-compatible corporate governance, which included implementing prototype Ricardian contracts and token allocation algorithms. This experience showcases my ability to innovate within the realm of data privacy and governance.

In a previous role as a VP of Solutions & Customer Success at LeapYear, a differential privacy startup, I successfully led a team in implementing privacy solutions that enabled machine learning on multi-jurisdictional datasets while ensuring compliance with privacy laws. The necessity in collaborating with cross-functional teams, such as IT, engineering, marketing, operations, and legal departments, to implement such solutions has equipped me with the skills needed to provide strategic guidance and support for privacy-by-design enterprise strategies.

I am eager to bring my expertise in data privacy and my commitment to the Church’s mission to this role. I look forward to the possibility of discussing how I can contribute to the success of the Church’s Global Privacy Program. Thank you for considering my application.

Sincerely, Justin Benson
