What I'm looking for

I seek technical writing or information-development roles where I can craft clear user documentation, improve UI text, work in collaborative Agile teams, and contribute to style guides and mentoring.

I am an experienced technical writer who has developed user manuals, online help, and instructional content for enterprise and web/mobile applications. I have held senior and managerial writing roles and collaborated with development teams in Agile environments.

I routinely create draft content, insert screen captures, convert and format documentation (Word, FrameMaker, PPT), review and edit for grammar and style, and author UI text, error messages, and functional specifications to improve usability and clarity.
