Writer & Editor - Business, Technical

WRITING You have a story to tell, a message to deliver, and you don’t know where to start. Let me help. I focus on business and technical topics. Such subjects can make for dry reading by their very nature; yet these writings may hold the key to significant decisions, developments, or innovations. You want to make it easy for your audience to read and understand your document. Let me make it clear, concise, and as fun to read as possible. Let me put some life into it. I will gather your thoughts and information to ensure I understand your topic and intent. Then, I will work collaboratively with you to shape the message and to build a document that suits your needs and tells your story. I can help you with documents such as reports, articles, white papers, proposals, plans, policies, procedures, presentations, specifications, contracts, training materials, newsletters, and correspondence. EDITING Don’t let your story or message get lost in, or be diluted by, bungled words and sentences. I can find the problem areas and offer you corrected or improved text. This starts with the basics — grammar, syntax, spelling, and punctuation — and can extend into a review of the document’s clarity, cohesion, flow, and overall readability. I can do as much or as little as you want or need. My job is not to alter your content or style; I am here only to ensure that your voice and your story will be clearly received by your readers. MY BACKGROUND After earning an engineering degree, I moved into project management. During my international career, I worked on the business side of large projects, with responsibilities including project funding, cost control, schedules, information management, contracts, human resources, and logistics. Each of those areas required significant documentation, and it all needed to be clear, concise, and error-free. I now do work on a more personal level, bringing my career skills and experience to each job I do.

 My goal is to deliver quality work that exceeds the client's expectations. For this, communication with my clients is key. If the needs, scope, and terms of the job are fully understood and agreed, then the job will be on a good foundation. Client comments include: - "From my view you did an amazing job of capturing the voice that I was after. I am very happy." - "Wow. Your draft completely exceeded our expectations. I really enjoy the flow of the article, and you’ve perfectly hit the tone we were looking for." - "Best piece of writing I’ve read on a technical topic"
