Hi, my name is Devon Westberg.
Welcome to my portfolio blog! I’m a Technical Writer living in the Seattle area. I have a post graduate diploma in Technical Writing from Algonquin College in Ontario, Canada. I was born and raised in Kitchener, Ontario and graduated from Wilfrid Laurier University with an Honours BA in Environmental Studies. After living and working in the Kitchener-Waterloo region for more than 10 years, my husband & I relocated to Columbus, OH in June of 2014. In Columbus I had the opportunity to volunteer at the Society for Technical Communication (STC) Summit 2015.
As the National Account Manager for a loading dock sales and service company, I created projects to re-write departmental job descriptions, develop efficient order tracking tools and standardize work flow processes to initiate employee cross-training. I knew there must be a more efficient way to build these documents so my company would find them easy to read & use. I’ve always been a list maker, a reader, a writer, an organizer and a designer. Choosing to further my career as a technical communicator seemed like a natural path to showcase these skills in a professional environment.
In July of 2015 we moved to the Pacific Northwest. I’d love to connect with local Seattle, WA Technical Writers.
If you’d like to get in touch, drop me a note.
