I live and breathe writing. In addition to my editorial work at several publications, I have experience creating clear, usable documentation, training materials, and digital content across finance, software, and production industries, and in the public sector.
I'm a trained technical writer who's proficient in documentation and collaboration tools (Jira, Confluence, WordPress, Microsoft Office Suite) and project management methodologies (Agile, Scrum, SDLC).
So if you decide that we should partner up, you can be confident that I've studied the craft, practiced the craft, and can help your team deliver clear, concise, and user-focused content on time.
I'm a driven, empathetic, and collaborative writer who loves to create engaging, helpful content. I want to be an integral part of your team and bring more to a project than just my expertise.
If you bring me to your team, you can expect me to:
Research your clients
Use systems and products like clients do
Create user-focused content
Structure and organize information so that it's logical and easy to find
Be a kind, respectful, and driven team player
Act as an empathetic client advocate
