Hi! I'm Kat Quinn, a certified professional technical communicator.
My expertise is in technical writing, project management, software engineering, business communication, and more.
As a technical communicator, my passion is transforming complex content into clear, accessible, and impactful documentation for its audience. I aim to bridge the gap between technical expertise and diverse audiences, ensuring that every project I touch empowers users with understanding and confidence.
​
Whether crafting concise technical documentation, managing a myriad of projects, designing intuitive user experiences, or strategizing effective content, I bring creativity and precision to every task.
Clarity isn't just simplifying — it's about connecting ideas, solving problems, and making complex concepts accessible.
​
Here, you'll find a showcase of my work demonstrating several skills that are central to making information clear, straightforward, and energizing. Explore my projects, and let's connect to make your ideas a clear reality.
Featured Projects
Developer Documentation
Check out the live guide on the Avalara developer website!
At Avalara, I developed a standalone integration guide for software developers that describes the steps and requirements for earning an Address Validation Certification.
​​
As a result, technology partners and API customers have a fuller and intuitively designed guide to integrate the address validation service via AvaTax APIs.
Edited Job Descriptions
While sifting through the many job descriptions at Takeda, I noticed how they lacked consistency, contained errors, and didn't follow the global style guide.
To improve the quality, I redesigned and developed a new template and thoroughly edited three jobs for clarity for the employee, hiring manager, and human resources manager while keeping Takeda's voice and branding style.
Content Strategy Proposal
JapanesePod101 is extremely popular on YouTube, with 2.97 million subscribers, and excites its users to improve their Japanese language skills.
As a user myself, I wanted to improve the content quality of their website, user experience design, and social media presence. From there, I developed an effective content strategy proposal to enhance the overall reach that meets the business and audience's needs.
AVALON Grant Proposal
AVALON, a 24/7 corner store cafe, is a business I fabricated, from brand kit to organization management.
Seeking to improve customer service and operation efficiency in the Phoenix location, I developed a grant proposal for the Arizona Commerce Authority (ACA) to fund the upcoming project.
This grant proposal successfully identifies how the grant will help AVALON achieve its vision while supporting ACA's values.
