Greetings, I hold a Ph.D. and I am a seasoned patent analyst, 3D modeler, inventor and product designer in New York. I have provided technical writing and illustrations for over 100 patents for 'pro se' inventors who represent themselves to the patent office. I hold a paralegal certificate and I often work under the supervision of attorneys, collaborate with engineers and innovators. I can go from design work to reverse engineering (using scanners), to prototype printing (8k resolution, resin and filament 3D printers), to fabrication drawings. I have also drafted user manuals and technical documentation and perform artificial intelligence prompt engineering. I am also a scientific author and illustrator specializing in technical writing, medical illustrations, statistics, grant writing, CAD drawings, proof-of-concept designs, as well as parametric mechanical designs. I utilize subscriptions for both AutoCADLT and Fusion360 routinely. I only accept a limited number of projects at a time so that I can maintain the quality and quick turnaround my clients have come to expect. Please know that I am NOT an attorney OR a registered patent agent, and I do NOT dispense legal advice or represent ANYONE to the USPTO - I only write technical content for those who chose to file themselves and my work is educational in nature. Thank you.

As a software engineer, project manager, and technical writer, I’ve written thousands of lines of code, advised on hundreds of software projects, and contributed to several dozen books and classes on IT. I work comfortably across both theoretical computer science and modern, production-grade software technologies. As a project manager, I have led cross-functional teams from concept to delivery, ensuring projects stay on scope, on schedule, and aligned with business goals. I’m experienced in translating technical complexity into clear plans, managing stakeholders, mitigating risk, and driving collaboration between engineers, designers, and leadership. I have strong familiarity with all the major project management and CRM software. My technical expertise spans mainstream programming languages including Python, C++, Java, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. I specialize in artificial intelligence, with deep knowledge of machine learning, data science, and statistics, as well as hardware and electrical engineering, including circuitry and chip design. I also have strong experience in DevOps, building and advising on projects using technologies such as Docker and Kubernetes. Please feel free to reach out at any time—I look forward to hearing from you.

I help B2B companies build content systems that actually generate revenue. Is your website getting traffic (or no traffic) but failing to generate leads? Many businesses invest in SEO or run ads only to send potential customers to a generic page with a "Book a Call" button, which results in low conversion rates. I solve this problem by building a complete system that converts cold traffic into qualified, sales-ready leads. Here's my proven 3-step process: 1) Drive qualified traffic through strategic SEO content that ranks 2) Capture leads with high-converting lead magnets tailored to each page 3) Nurture to sale with email sequences and monthly newsletters that move prospects through your funnel Why this works: Most companies create content without a system. They get traffic but no leads. Or leads but no sales. I build the complete machine that turns readers into revenue. Why me: - Expert Vetted, $1M+ earned, MBA (Consulting/Supply Chain) + B.E. in Mechanical Engineering. - 5-star track record with B2B, manufacturing, supply chain, and technology leaders. - Blend of technical depth and revenue-focused marketing; I make complex products easy to evaluate and buy. - Worked with Microsoft, Google, Samsung, Databricks, VMware, Procore, and Fortune 500s What I do (end-to-end): SEO that attracts ICPs Research, on-page optimization, content strategy, and technical fixes that earn the right clicks—not vanity traffic. Lead magnets that convert On-page calculators, checklists, engineering guides, spec sheets, and case studies tailored to each page’s search intent. Email nurture that sells Welcome + problem/solution + proof sequences, re-engagement flows, and launch campaigns tied to sales milestones. Deliverables - SEO audits, content roadmaps, topic clusters - Long-form content (white papers, case studies, technical blogs) - Lead magnets (PDF guides, calculators, comparison sheets) - Email sequences (welcome, education, objection-handling, re-engagement) - Sales enablement (one-pagers, pitch decks, product pages) - Messaging & positioning for complex/regulated products - Monthly Newsletters Industries Manufacturing & advanced materials • Industrial automation • Supply chain & logistics • Cybersecurity • SaaS/Enterprise tech • Pharma/medical devices.

I'm a data analyst, adjunct professor, and professional writer. Yes, I wear a lot of hats, but I also have a lot of experience in each of these fields. I work full-time at a software development company using SQL and python daily, creating reports that healthcare clients can use to add value to their company. However, on the weekends I teach PSY101 at my local state college. I teach a 2.5-hour lecture weekly, grade exams, create assignments and exams, and engage with students. When I'm not working on those projects, I'm writing. I have one self-published novel out on amazon (Professional Student). It made it to the top 100 free ebooks in the women sleuths category when it first came out and I'm currently working on a YA fantasy novel that I'll be querying to agents this year. I like to work with numbers and data, but I can't resist the freedom I get by writing. I publish on Medium for my personal pieces, but I can't say that I stick to one niche. So, whether it's data, technical writing, or creative writing - trust me with your next project and I won't let you down.
