Technical Writing To Help You
Successfully Reach Your Audience
As a freelance science and technical writer, I convert tech talk into plain English.
I specialize in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) topics. Within those STEM topics, I specialize in:
- environmental sciences
- renewable energy
- decarbonization
- electrification
- circular economy issues
Most of my assignments take the form of more technical materials such as case studies, white papers, thought leader articles and informative website content.
I also help ensure that the language used in any given product matches the intended audience, whether that's your colleagues, policy makers, investors, customers, students or the lay public. If you need to communicate with multiple audiences, I can help you match each publication to the relevant audience. Each audience will appreciate you speaking directly to them.
Whether you're a new startup, a well-established business, a nonprofit, a government agency or an academic institution, I can help you reach your Your particularly audience with your particular message, on time and on budget. That's what I do.

Virginia Economic Review, 2nd Quarter 2023 issue, pages 36-43
Excerpt:
"In 2001, when cousins Ryan and Travix Croxton took over their family's 100-year-old oyster bed leases on Virginia's Middle Peninsula, the Commonwealth's oyster industry was on life support. The traditional harvest method of dredging the floors of bays and estuaries had left waterways oxygen-poor and clogged with silt, and the region's native oyster, the Eastern oyster, seemed bound for the endangered species list. Contemporary estimates placed the species at barely 1% of its historic population."

Make The Most Of Your Parking Lot with Renewable Energy
Excerpt:
"Owners of companies and facilities managers are eager to maximize the potential of their buildings, however, they may be overlooking a valuable resource: the parking lot. The parking lot, which may initially be unappealing and costly, has the potential to become a valuable asset for the company. How can this transformation occur?
By incorporating electric vehicle (EV) chargers and solar panels into the parking lot infrastructure, you can unlock the otherwise untapped potential of your parking lots."

Excerpt:
"Owners and property managers of multifamily properties want to save money where possible and are now turning to smart appliances and energy-efficient upgrades to reduce monthly energy costs, as well as increasing revenue through the addition of EV charging stations as an amenity.
Before making these changes, it’s important to consider the cost of upgrades and determine what benefits you hope to gain."
Website FAQs:
Excerpt: Can heat pumps work for an entire house or business?
"The degree to which a heat pump can fulfill your needs at your home or business depends on its rating, whether it has a ducted or ductless air source (or ground source), the climate in your area, and the size of your home. A heat pump is rated according to its Seasonal Energy Efficiency Rating (SEER). Modern heat pumps have better coil designs and compressors, improved motors, and highly efficient fans, meaning excellent SEER ratings, high efficiency, and the ability to heat your home even when temperatures are below freezing."
