What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can lead high-integrity technical documentation, strengthen compliance and training, and partner closely with SMEs to improve processes—while balancing accuracy and speed under tight deadlines.

I’m a Senior Technical Writer focused on producing high-integrity aerospace documentation—test procedures, manuals, and technical proposals—by extracting, interpreting, and verifying complex data with engineering SMEs. I’m committed to precision, clarity, and building trust in every deliverable.

At Marotta Controls, I audit technical documentation for strict compliance with aerospace, contractual, and federal standards. I also manage multiple technical documents under tight program deadlines, while maintaining consistency and accuracy across deliverables.

Across prior roles, I’ve developed and standardized documentation to strengthen training and operational performance. As a Documentation and Training Coordinator, I interviewed SMEs to eliminate training gaps and created SSPs, validation protocol, SLPs, operating manuals, and work instructions, supporting compliance with QMS protocols and ISO 13485 Medical Device Standards.

I also bring process-improvement and customer-impact experience. I’ve formulated SOPs to streamline workflows, used structured feedback loops to target audiences for complex procedures, and supported small businesses through troubleshooting and product education in a Solutions Specialist role—backed by tools like SharePoint, Jira, Confluence, and basic programming for operational support.
