Projects

As a Communications Manager and Technical Writer, I have worked on a variety of projects, ranging from corporate strategy definition to media relations to marketing and sales collateral creation. Below is a sample of my recent work.

VENZA Program Manuals

Content Writer

Comprehensive sales and client resource for VENZA's signature Matterhorn, Denali, and Everest programs. Each manual contains a program overview, feature guides for each product, timelines, a RACI matrix, and links to relevant resources.

​

Production of the Program Manuals—VENZA's first ever collateral of this type—involved a multi-step process of SME interviews, collaboration with Sales and Marketing, and work with graphic designers to create a cohesive fit of form and function and a highly useful and persuasive resource for clients and prospects.

VENZA Corporate Communication Manual

Architect

As the Corporate Communications Manager, I established, defined, and documented company standards for communication. The manual set policy for tone, style, grammar, messaging, and more in order to establish uniform, legible company communication for internal and external audiences.

​

Topics covered include the brand's mission statement, vision statement, core values, and core creative concept, as well as approved external messages and press boilerplate.

Press and Media Relations

Strategic Lead

At VENZA, I spearhead the company's press and media communications effort.

​

This includes issuing frequent press releases to update industry partners, clients, and prospects about company news. Common topics of releases include new hires, staff promotions, closed sales, product releases, trade shows, and other company events.

​

I work with SMEs for scope definition, draft releases, seek necessary approvals, and collaborate with external media outlets for publication.

Writing Sample

Below is a representative sample of my writing.

​

The "Data Privacy Guidebook" is a resource originally researched, written, and designed by me. 

​

It is a comprehensive guide to data privacy law, including an introduction to the basic terminology and concepts of data privacy, common requirements in modern laws, and a review of the current regulatory landscape.
