Portfolio Overview
The below portfolio highlights the writing projects I've completed. Contact me for more details on your communication needs.
Au Pair Education
The Au Pair Education organization was hosting a series of events including a New York City Tour. For their advertising literature, I wrote a piece describing the trip to get the cohort of Au Pairs excited about choosing the NYC trip over some of the others. This excursion had the highest level of interest over the others due to the effective copy.
Instructional document for an Emergency Response Federal Application
In the image, there is content I wrote when the technical team delivered Multifactor Authentication. The user base was largely a boots-on-the-ground group of leaders and volunteers engaged in emergency response activities. Introducing MFA was a significant change for the user group so thorough training, tech support, and help text was implemented into the application and the delivery process. This is a snapshot of that support.
The (He)art of the Investing
Young Mogul Magazine is a pop culture and lifestyle outlet targeting 18-40 year olds in the US. Considering the owner of the magazine maintains a penchant for love and money, I was directed to create an article drawing a comparison between finding love and the perfect stock. With both, dating and finances, requiring some panache coupled with strategic technique, this article seeks to align the two.

Technical Writing
This is an example of a user-guide written for proprietary software product geared toward the events planning industry. I worked closely with the technical team to understand the functions of the product, and with the customer to understand their needs, then created a document technically accurate and effective for end-users.
RMA Worldwide, Inc
For this project I wrote captions for the locations where RMA Worldwide provides service within the United States. This example is the caption for the Washington DC location.

US Department of Energy Small Business Expo
For this project, I created the Expo Theme Name:
Power Generation (for small business)
“Power Generation” is a double entendre as the theme of the expo was generating clean energy. A secondary meaning relates to power being generated with small businesses as they partner with each other and the USDOE. I worked with a graphic artist who created vividly colored designs to showcase the theme on printed and online materials.
Karen Mack Management Consultants
For this project, I designed and provided writing and editing services for this DC based consulting business.

UICMA Software for an Educational System - Test Scripts
While working a software development project supporting a local educational institution I wrote test scripts for end-users to follow to ensure the requirements they provided were developed and delivered. The scripts were detailed, thorough, and supported the technical staff and stakeholders.
