Key Achievements

  • Reduced documentation research time from 2–3 days to ~60 minutes by designing reusable AI-assisted documentation workflows adopted across multiple teams.
  • Delivered a 695-file cross-product documentation migration and rebrand in 3 days instead of a projected 2–3 weeks through AI-assisted operational tooling and automation.
  • Designed an AI documentation toolkit of over 80 reusable components — slash commands, specialized agents, and shared knowledge modules — creating a layered system adopted across the team's documentation workflows and content operations.
  • Owned enterprise networking and cloud infrastructure documentation strategy for multiple enterprise network and security products.
  • Analyzed 753 support escalations representing 32% of the product area's support volume to identify recurring customer pain points and improve troubleshooting documentation strategy.

Professional Summary

I identify where complex products lose users to confusion and build the infrastructure to fix it at scale. At Cloudflare, that meant designing AI-assisted workflow systems adopted across multiple teams, analyzing 753 support escalations to redesign troubleshooting architecture from real data, and compressing a 695-file cross-product migration from weeks to three days through operational tooling built from scratch.

The work sits at the intersection of AI-assisted documentation tooling, systems design, and technical communication, with deep domain experience across enterprise networking, cloud security, and developer-facing platforms. Strong foundation in docs-as-code operations, GitHub workflows, CI/CD environments, and support-driven content strategy.

Writing is the output; the real work is designing the systems that produce and maintain knowledge — knowledge engineering, if you like, in service of clear documentation.

Professional Experience

Senior Technical Writer

Cloudflare

2021 – May 2026 (recently departed)

  • Reduced documentation research time from 2–3 days to ~60 minutes and content scaffolding from 30 minutes to 5 minutes by designing reusable AI-assisted documentation workflows adopted across multiple teams.
  • Delivered a 695-file cross-product documentation migration and rebrand in 3 days instead of a projected 2–3 weeks by building AI-assisted operational tooling and automating large-scale documentation updates.
  • Improved troubleshooting documentation prioritization for enterprise networking products by analyzing recurring escalation patterns across support tickets and building structured customer pain-point analysis workflows.
  • Analyzed 753 support cases representing 32% of the product area's support volume to identify primary customer pain points and redesign troubleshooting documentation using symptom-driven diagnostic workflows.
  • Reduced customer and stakeholder decision friction by designing a connectivity reference architecture guide comparing 11 enterprise tunnel and connector deployment options.
  • Improved documentation review visibility and triage efficiency by building an automated GitHub-to-Google Chat pull request reporting workflow.
  • Reorganized and updated 400+ documentation pages to align with redesigned dashboard information architecture and improve product discoverability.
  • Owned the full documentation lifecycle for enterprise network and security products, including technical research, stakeholder collaboration, publishing workflows, and long-term maintenance.
  • Designed and built an AI documentation toolkit of over 80 reusable components — slash commands, specialized agents, and shared knowledge modules — and presented the system and its scalable content operations strategies to engineering and product leadership teams.
