About
A technical writer with experience on both sides of the content page: brand marketing and software processes. I am just as comfortable working with a command-line server GPS application as I am promoting a business service with a blog.
My experience includes many user and admin guides, training materials, SOPs, MOPs and SLAs. Add to that list data model documents, marketing emails and white papers and you can see that I'm just up for the communications challenge.
Verbal and written communication are the currency of enterprise and technology. If you are seeking a confident and skilled team player, please contact me.
