Profile Summary

I work with clients to develop written materials designed to communicate complex scientific and technical ideas to non-specialist audiences and students. Specializations include the following:

•	Writing and Editing (Blogs, White Papers, Literature Reviews, Academic Editing): Projects include documentation of research methods and procedures, providing academic editing for researchers who speak English as a second language, and the development of outreach and education materials. Clients include the Stanford University Geophysics Department, Penn State Public Media, Direction Digital: Digital Marketing Consultants, and a variety of private and academic clients.

•	Patent Application Editing

•	Instructional Design: As an instructional designer, I typically work as a member of a remotely distributed team that includes writers, editors, multimedia specialists, and producers to develop course outlines based on content requirements and other learning objectives, write original content based on interviews with subject-matter experts, and work with multimedia teams to develop concepts for interactive course elements and ensure scientific accuracy.  This work requires close adherence to schedules and deadlines.
