Welcome! I'm Heather, a versatile professional with a passion for writing, education, and strategic communications. With a Master of Fine Arts in Writing, I've cultivated a career spanning academia, government, and the business world.
As an educator and learning and development specialist, I've designed curricula and learning experiences for diverse audiences, both domestically and internationally. My career has included various leadership roles in the Department of Defense and the training industry where I focused on training, program management, project development, competency development, and capacity building.
In addition to my educational pursuits, I specialize in various facets of creative and professional writing, including editing, copywriting, feature writing, and crafting compelling proposals. Whether refining manuscripts or developing strategic or operational communications, my work is driven by a dedication to fostering growth and transformation.
Currently, I reside on 36 acres nestled in the mountains, where I continue to explore the intersections of language, creativity, and education. I am passionate about crafting impactful training programs and strategic communications across professional and creative arts environments.
