Hello,
My name is Chita Yslas and I have been a software engineer for over 20
years now. I enjoy what I do but after 20 years I am exploring a shift
in my career to include technical writing and am looking for ways to get
additional experience.
One of my strongest skills is English/writing, and I believe that I am
better at the written word than the spoken word. Given my technical
background, I am also adept at combining my writing and computer skills
to put together easy-to-understand directions and documents. In the
course of my job as a software engineer I have had
numerous opportunities to create or assist with user or technical
documentation. Also as the editor of a monthly church newsletter for
4-5 years I helped overhaul it from MS Word to MS Publisher format,
greatly facilitating the monthly production of the newsletter. I
consider it an enjoyable challenge to not only format documents in
eye-catching, yet easy-to-scan ways that lure people to read what I
wrote but to also read it as quickly and efficiently as possible.
I think technical writing may be right up my alley! Do you have
anything I might work on for you? If so, I would be happy to give it a
shot and you can see what you think of my work.
Have a great day and thanks for any assistance!
Chita Yslas
