What I'm looking for

I’m looking for teams that value structure, accuracy, and practical messaging—where I can translate complex technical and regulatory requirements into rollout guidance that keeps Product, Sales, and Customer Success aligned and measurable.

I help organizations turn technical, operational, and regulatory requirements into clear positioning, rollout guidance, and enablement content people can use. My work sits at the intersection of partner communications, platform updates, lifecycle messaging, internal communications, and content governance—especially where structure and accuracy are non-negotiable for teams like Product, Sales, and Customer Success.

At Freddie Mac, I led communications and rollout support for seller/servicer-facing product, policy, and reporting changes affecting 2,000+ customers and vendors, delivering 98% Day-1 implementation readiness and supporting Customer Integration Testing. I also reduced routine implementation support inquiries by 20% through centralized rollout hubs and self-service technical guides (10,000+ downloads), cut approval-to-publish cycle time by 25% by removing workflow bottlenecks, and improved weekly newsletter click-through rates by 24%. Across my contracting work for the CFPB and other organizations, I’ve driven lifecycle engagement from 20% to 33% with better message hierarchy, calls to action, and audience segmentation in Eloqua, while translating dense, policy-sensitive updates into employee-ready guidance. Today, I bring that same practical, compliance-aware approach—supported by SEO, analytics, and generative AI training—to content and enablement programs that keep stakeholders aligned and outcomes measurable.
