Tech Comms Before It Was Cool


I work in the layer—between communication, systems, and execution—where work either comes together or quietly falls apart.

Overview

20+ Years of Making Work… well, Work!

Projects don't usually break because of effort—they break when information is scattered, ownership is unclear, or systems can't keep up.


Across 20+ years working in executive communication, project coordination, and strategic initiatives, my focus has stayed the same: make work easier to follow, easier to manage, and easier to move forward.

Based in the greater Seattle area.

Executive Communication

Shaping messages that move organizations forward

Project Coordination

Keeping complex work on track and visible

Strategic Initiatives

Connecting people, tools, and information

How I Work

Systems Thinking, From Gaming → Enterprise

I've always paid attention to how things work behind the scenes—how people, tools, and information connect (or don't) when something needs to get done.

That started early with online gaming (MMORPG nerd-alert)—learning systems, patterns, and how small breakdowns can derail progress. Later, it showed up in corporate and tech environments where the stakes were higher, but the problems weren't that different. I'm usually the person pulling those pieces together when things start to drift or stall.


What MY WORK FOCUSES ON

At the core, it's not about just producting copy or a communication. it's about making sure the work holds up day-to-day.


Projects & Workflows

Structuring projects and workflows so work actually moves forward without getting stuck.

Documentation & Guides

Creating documentation and guides people actually use—not just file away.

Team Communication

Shaping communication so teams stay aligned, informed, and moving in the same direction.

Technical Editing & Content Systems

Building content systems and editing across platforms like SharePoint, wikis, online forums, and newsgroups.

the thing.

And then make it clear where to find it, and enable those who need it → to use it and do it.

Approach

From Chaos to Clarity

I start by figuring out what's actually going on, then build something people can use. This means expectations are clear, systems make sense, and progress doesn't get lost.

Decode

Understand the real situation beneath the surface noise

Design

Build systems and structures that hold up under real conditions

Draft

Deliver the actual thing—clear, usable, and ready to go
