Dear Marek Marczykowski-Górecki,

Hope this email finds you well.

I'm very glad that I'm applying for the Qubes OS project as documentation and technical writer. I'm very interested in working under the supervision of the invisible things lab. I'm now in my senior year in university and working on a thesis related to ARM TrustZone. Similar to Qubes OS security approach Trust zone is relying on physical isolation of memory. I'm very interested in Qubes OS as it has stronger isolation and multiple levels of trust other than the secure and insecure levels in TrustZone.

I'm interested in all the project ideas and would like to participate in all of them. I would be very thankful if I got the chance to work with you as a part of the season of docs program. I understand how competitive the program is and would like to be part of your team even if I'm not selected in this program. 

Sincerely,

Mostafa Bestamy
