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 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, Applied
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 gaming—learning systems, patterns, and how small breakdowns can derail progress. Later, it showed up in corporate 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
Decode.
Design.
Draft the thing.
I tend to step into environments where things are messy, undefined, or spread across too many tools and conversations.
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
