I am an experienced Communications Consultant, producing highest-quality hard copy and electronic communications for my clients. Website updating, content management, and complicated document attachments (white papers, technical reports, price lists, menus, etc.) incorporating graphics are a specialty. A published author, I provide editorial assistance, expert proofreading, and SEO advice to enhance the relevant lifespan of legacy websites.I aim to enthusiastically address small business complaints that they cannot find anyone to update their websites at a reasonable price, and welcome the challenge!

Same responsibilities as previous, but brand-new spin-off Company, CONDUENT.

I produce the client publications FYI (http://hrlaws.services.xerox.com/) and Legislate. I am also updating publication process documents, re-writing sections as the systems evolve. Very satisfying work! Many changes are occurring here, as we prepare to spin off from Xerox to our new identity, Conduent. Several of my colleagues are facing the option of working virtually, and I shared my article from my days at Aon "Realities of the Virtual Worker" with them. It was very well received. I am still working virtually, and it works well for me -- but it's not for everybody. I'm ready for new challenges!
