What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative technical writing role that leverages my IT/cybersecurity background, focuses on user-centered documentation, and offers growth in product and content strategy.

I am an information technology professional with a B.S. in Information Technology - Cyber Security from the University of Cincinnati and hands-on experience documenting software and customer workflows.

As a technical writer, I use MadCap Flare and UX principles to create clear, structured content while collaborating closely with development teams to capture product lifecycles and new features.

Previously, as a Customer Success Specialist, I built account development plans, performed software demonstrations, tracked key account metrics, and communicated customer feedback to improve product delivery and quality.

I am detail-oriented, strong in research and copyediting, and proficient with HTML, XML, CSS, Microsoft and Google products, and project management tools like Asana, Jira, Confluence, and Zeplin.
