As a senior API technical writer with a Master of Fine Arts in Writing, I combine my technical skills and creative flair to produce clear, concise, and engaging API documentation for various industries, including fintech and gaming. I have a background as a former software developer and a passion for learning about emerging technologies, such as generative AI, machine learning, and UX design.Most recently, I worked as a contract API technical writer at IGT, a leading gaming company, where I wrote API documentation for state iLotteries. Before that, I worked at Netspend, a prepaid debit card provider, and T-Mobile, a telecommunications giant, where I wrote API and webhook documentation for their dev portals and customer-facing product guides. In these roles, I collaborated with agile scrum team developers, product owners, and product managers, and analyzed Swagger specs based on OpenAPI to design REST API guides. I also used various tools and platforms, such as Git, GitHub, Bitbucket, Azure DevOps, Visual Studio Code, Hugo, Jira, and Confluence, to manage document repositories, version control, issues and tasks tracking, and knowledge bases. Additionally, I documented AWS cloud services platform and used Docs-as-Code workflow with technical writing team and DevOps developers. I am adept at using Markdown, HTML, Bash CLI, and other languages and formats to create and edit API content and generate web pages for dev portal content.
