Profile Business & Technical Writer/Editor, SMM Consultant, Resume Specialist (CPRW)

Since 1999, it has been my priority to simplify and refocus technical and business communications towards target audiences, rather than present the standard encyclopedic narratives that most businesses subject their employees and clients to. In all these years, I inherited numerous “jigsaw documents” (totally disconnected gargantuan files of technical and business content). I am passionate about writing, but am drawn towards the task of shaping these documents into more clear, concise communications with standardized formats that become documentation systems across organizations of all sizes.

As a Communications Consultant, I study service portfolio's of IT Consultant Pools, analyze target audiences, determine the right communications vehicles for different levels, and develop strategies to deliver key messages. I have developed winning proposals, brochures, and SOWs with a strong focus on Technology Integration, Infrastructure Upgrades, Database Consolidation, and other IT related changes arising from M&As.

As a Social Media Strategist, I work with clients to develop a social media strategy to better market their personal brand through targeted account profiles on major social media sites. I develop techniques for clients to establish themselves as Subject Matter Experts in their areas and train them in best practices. This service is specifically advantageous to Executive-Level candidates, since large corporations consider an extensive and influential social network to be a major asset.

I have also explored the possibility of applying my honed business and technical writing skills to develop top-quality résumés and employment documentation for today’s job market. I have worked with clients from various industries, including Information Technology, Government & Policy, Banking, Financial Services, Legal, Arts & Media, Marketing, Transportation & Warehousing, Sports & Recreation, Healthcare (Administration & Practice), and Restaurant & Food Services.

I specialize in:

Technical Research & Documentation, ITIL Process Documentation, Business Collateral, Business Proposals, Contracts & SOWs, Instructional Design, Web Content Management, Résumés & related documents (Annotated Portfolios, Profiles, BIOs, News Releases, Letters)
Education degree BA
Major specialization Other, Commerce
