What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can create documentation that helps support developers and users.

I’m a seasoned technical writer and developer with over 10 years of experience specialising in detailed technical documentation, API guides, and user interfaces. I’m known for enhancing developer and user experiences with precise, web-ready content that’s accurate and easy to use.

In previous roles, I have owned end-to-end documentation delivery and partnered closely with engineering, product, support, and UX to gather requirements, validate technical accuracy, and align content to user needs. I have led the creation and maintenance of documentation standards, and I engineered first-time user-guided tutorials and tours.
