Why are you interested in this office position? STC and STC-MGL helped me get into Technical Communication, so for the past three years I’ve tried to pay it forward as a council member. I hope to continue that effort for another year by assisting the STC-MGL council as Immediate Past President.
What else would you like members to know about you? I’m happy to share experiences about being a Technical Communicator in a small company that is trying to grow with anyone who’d like to chat.
