Hi there! I'm Ellen and
while my side hobbies and interests may include history, home restoration, gardening, and DIY in general,
my career experience actually has a quite
lengthy and detailed background in
Technical Writing...and I love it!
​
Which is why I started this freelance writing journey in the first place.
​
Technical Writing is one of those niche careers where you'll find a person who genuinely LOVES their job. It takes a unique person to enjoy the detail-oriented nature of this type of writing.
​
Learning about new products. Taking them apart to understand their function and features.
​
That's probably also why I have such a passion for technical writing. It allows me to be creative on a technical level, as well as productive on a constructive thinking level.
​
It also requires a writer with a personality that enjoys different aspects of writing as a whole. It requires
someone who is
•creative, yet controlled in their writing•
•detailed, yet concise in their explanations•
•extremely knowledgeable in the manufacturing world, yet also has an understanding of technical marketing as well•
and most importantly...
​
It requires a well rounded individual who can understand the audience.

Technical writing requires strict document control and an understanding of document layout and instructional design.
​
It needs a writer who can make a technical document easy to understand for all users, regardless of their knowledge of the industry.
Technical writing also requires a strong respect and understanding of the company's corporate branding standards. Each business is different and their branding reflects that. And as the Technical Writer, we have to ensure we adhere to those standards accordingly.
So...What do I bring to the table?
I will help your engineering team feel less overwhelmed with the endless documentation tasks.
​
I will help your company feel confident that the documentation will be created with accuracy and proficiency.
​
I will help your team be able to feel less overloaded by working with a writer who already knows the mechanical engineering industry, requiring less training upfront.
​
I will relieve your engineering team of the fear they won't have enough time on their plates to complete the documentation projects....because that's what I'm here for.
​
I want to share in your business' passion and
help it to flow smoothly and efficiently day in and day out.
