From Tech & PM to Freelance
My Journey into Project Management and Technical Writing
After nearly seven years navigating the world of tech, banking, and program management, I’ve decided to start something new.
I spent the last few years in fast-paced, high-stakes environments. As a Program Manager, I oversaw technology and risk projects, rolled out governance frameworks, and made sure we stayed in lockstep with ever-evolving policies. I led compliance-driven initiatives, merged fragmented projects into unified roadmaps, and even built dashboards and automation to fix what wasn’t working. Before that, I was coding in Java at a bank, making web apps and locking down security issues across dozens of systems.
The common thread? Solving problems, communicating clearly, and keeping momentum. That’s what brought me here.
Why PM + Tech Writing Felt Like the Right Fit
Project management has always been about clarity — bringing order to chaos and helping teams do their best work. Technical writing, in many ways, is the same: converting something complex into something digestible and useful.
I’ve written countless Confluence pages, how-to guides, executive-ready decks and procedures. I’ve translated technical jargon into structured plans, and turned risk assessments into clear action items. Writing has always been part of the job — now I’m making it the job.
I’m diving into freelance project management and technical writing because I want to keep building solutions — just in a more flexible, creative way.
What I’m Excited to Build
This next chapter is about working directly with teams and individuals who need help organizing their vision or telling their story — whether that’s launching a product, crafting internal documentation, or creating content that connects the dots for their audience.
I’m especially interested in:
Helping startups and teams get organized with lightweight PM frameworks
Writing technical content that actually makes sense to humans
Supporting teams through periods of change, growth, or chaos (aka my specialty)
What You Can Expect
This space is for sharing what I’m learning as I build my freelance practice — the wins, the questions, the messy in-between. You’ll find posts on:
Project management tips and templates
Behind-the-scenes of freelancing in tech
Writing workflows and client case studies
My goal is to be helpful, honest, and maybe even a little entertaining.
