Why your customers need hands-on experience with your software product...
Technical Writer, Technical Trainer & Training Manager
I have 25+ years experience in the software industry. I’ve spent the majority of that creating highly technical documentation and training content for large enterprises such as Amazon and Microsoft.
Available for technical writing, technical training, and technical training program management with a heavy focus on hands-on labs and interactivity.
Technical agencies can find you good technical writers. (May of them have been my colleagues in the past!) But agencies will also charge you double or triple what they pay the actual technical writer. Going direct cuts out the middleman and gives you a better return on your investment.
Services like Upwork and Fiverr are teeming with inexperienced talent angling to grab a job at the lowest possible price. Often, the results are less than stellar. (Many English “writers” on Fiverr, for example, are not fluent in English and produce stilted work riddled with mistakes.) Many companies end up losing money with these services because they end up paying someone else to redo the work!

As a kid, I always wanted to be a writer. As an adult, I take great delight in breaking down extremely technical computing concepts into language that anyone can easily understand. My work has seen me write technical docs for everything from Amazon Web Services to applications for health care analytics and even oceanic engineering.
I’ve managed training programs with a heavy focus on interactive elements and hands-on labs for close to a decade. My engineering background means I’m also comfortable standing up engineering teams that can help meet training and content delivery needs. I’ve architected and deployed systems that enable hosting hands-on labs online in a safe and secure manner, and built, deployed, and maintain content publishing systems for documentation and training.
I occasionally write blog posts on new tech and cool hacks I’ve found on the various platforms I work on. I also write about my experience with creating and managing lab environments for hands-on training. Check out my most recent missives below!
