I love to craft articles, guides, docs, and other pieces of content that explain difficult or complex subjects in a way that educates, but does not confuse, the audience.
I am a professional scrum master (PSM-I). I enjoy bringing all of the pieces of projects together, organizing them, and coordinating contributions into amazing results.
I started my tech career doing full stack PHP dev; still do some dev work from time to time. Laravel and WP are near and dear to my heart, no matter what people say :)
First technical writer hire, started as Lead Technical Writer. Tasked with overhauling existing docs as well as documenting new features as the product grows.

Have written technical guides targeted at developer or tech audiences for years, both as documentation and as freelance contributions to sites like SitePoint, Scotch, RayGun, and more.
Accomplished at project management skills, stemming both from full-time work in teams as well as from managing stakeholders, timelines, vendors, and other contributors in freelance projects.
