Job Title:: Technical Writer

Company Name:: most recently Interactive Data Managed Solutions

About Me:: I've been writing, editing and translating software documentation since 1988, with an emphasis on financial market information systems since 2001. I design and create single-sourced documentation for corporate applications such as financial terminals, APIs and system architectures in English and German. When asked real nice, I've been known to write, edit, proofread or translate marketing copy.

I use MadCap Flare (yeah!), Microsoft Word, WebWorks Publisher, Adobe FrameMaker and Acrobat to output to WebHelp, JavaHelp, HTML and PDF.
