Why Me?

I’ve been in your shoes as a retirement plan and pension professional …

I have over 25 years in-depth administration experience working with qualified plans such as: 

  • 401(k)
  • 403(b)
  • Defined benefit
  • Cash balance 

During my career, I frequently interacted with other industry professionals regarding plan amendments and other activities necessary to keep plans in compliance with ERISA, IRS and DOL regulations:

  • ERISA attorneys
  • Consultants
  • Auditors
  • Actuaries 

Looking for a writer with an industry professional designation? I earned one – the CEBS designation  from the International Foundation of Employee Benefit Plans and the Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania.

I know, keeping up with the frequent twists and turns government regulations take can be difficult. How do I keep current with pension trends? Through constant continuing education with webinars, articles, and study materials.

I’m a writing and research type of gal …

I have extensive experience in writing and editing of:

  • White papers and case studies
  • Articles and newsletters 
  • Employee communication materials

I write to inform and persuade. A strong writer with an analytical mind, I adapt my voice to the needs of your project. I write conversationally, able to translate complex retirement plan concepts into language the everyday person can understand.

And I love research! 

My white papers required interesting research into different solutions for pension planning. My M.A. thesis involved research into the making of 12th-century manuscripts.

And my articles have needed not only research, but interviewing skills as well.

And I know how to run a project …

I’ve been a project manager, so bring that skill to the business of copywriting. Deadlines, status reports, clear communication… all things I’m accustomed to.

I’m also used to working on more than one project at a time and can “switch gears” midstream if necessary. I enjoy helping you solve your communication and marketing problems.

Bottom line …

I love the written word, bringing that love and dedication to my clients and their projects.

And I understand what you do and who you write to. How can I help? Let me know on my contact page.
