Introduction: Hello, I am a highly skilled and experienced technical communicator and tech pubs manager. I am very valuable as a technical communicator for the following reasons: - I have an Electrical Engineering degree and have worked in high-tech for the better part of 20 years. I have provided end-user and marketing materials for products ranging from structural design software to network test/measurement and data storage technologies and solutions. I have a proven ability to grasp the most difficult and complex technologies and am able to effectively communicate with engineers and scientists. - I am particularly strong in the areas of tech comm strategy and information architecture. In other words, I can provide clients who know they need technical communications (but do not know where to start) with guidance and structure, I can recommend (and then implement) tech comm solutions where none exist. - In addition to the above skills, I can crank out high volumes of effective content when the circumstances require with less regard to overall content architectures. - I am also very experienced in areas associated with usability testing, user interface design, and human factors. - I have a strong intuition for exposing the core information the customer (and the customer's customer) needs. I focus on developing the necessary information for each situation or client, ranging from informative snippets of information in a software user interface all the way up to deeply researched articles and white papers. If you believe you have use of an individual of my talent and skill, please feel free to contact me. Thank you in advance for your consideration. Regards, Dennis Hardman
