Houston Man Sends Resume To ISIS

SUGAR LAND, TX — Who knew ISIS was hiring?

Apparently a Sugar Land resident who graduated from the University of Houston in 2008 did and sent them a resume asking them to bring him aboard, so he could teach their recruits how to speak English.

“I am looking to get a position teaching English to students in the Islamic State,” Warren Clark aka Abu Muhammad, wrote in his cover letter.

The documents were found in a house in Iraqi territory that was formerly controlled by ISIS and was obtained by the Program on Extremism at George Washington University, according to a NBC News report.

Clark, 33, who grew up in a Christian family with ties to the military, reportedly converted to Islam in 2004, and shortly after his conversion became radicalized.

Sources said that shortly after his 2008 graduation, Clark taught as a substitute teacher in Texas, and then embarked to the Middle East, teaching in Saudi Arabia for two years before moving onto Turkey.

Meanwhile residents in Sugar Land were shocked to hear that a man with backgrould like Clark’s would do this.

"It's a shame," Jesus Moreno told KPRC. "Especially the threat that ISIS becomes for the entire world and especially the United States being a No. 1 target for that organization."

Residents who know the family said they have not seen Clark in several years and his family rarely talks about him.

However, sources inside the Program on Extremism at George Washington University confirmed that Warren did join ISIS, and believe he is still alive, but they do not know for certain.
