Software Technical Writer and Former Librarian

Hi, I'm Kate, a highly technical writer specializing in API documentation, mapping, and energy. I've standardized class-based API docs for Clover, written knowledge base articles for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, created tutorials for the University of Arkansas, and penned articles about additive manufacturing for the American Society for Mechanical Engineers. As a former academic librarian, I'm also a top 5% researcher who can skillfully write about a range of topics. More importantly, I can communicate them to your readers in clear and accurate language. While I'm new to this site, I'm a top-rated freelancer at Upwork with 99% job success. Happy clients have awarded bonuses for the quality of my work on multiple occasions. Skills: API documentation, product documentation, technical writing, academic writing, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, JSON, Git, Python, Java, JavaDoc, ArcGIS and QGIS, research, citation management
