STRATEGIC TECHNICAL COMMUNICATION MANAGER
My passion for problem-solving and strategic documentation makes me a valuable asset in high-stakes environments where precision, compliance, and usability are critical. I have contributed to DoD, aerospace, and high-tech industries, ensuring that technical documentation supports mission-critical decisions.
I hold a Master’s Degree in Communication and a Bachelor’s Degree in Communication with a Professional & Technical Writing minor and specialized expertise in Crisis Management, UX design, Advertising, project management, and digital content strategy.
When not optimizing documentation workflows, I’m diving into genealogy research, reading historical fiction, or cheering on the University of Oklahoma (Boomer Sooner!).
