Google Contract
Ann Arbor, Michigan
April 2019 - December 2019 (Approx. 9 months)
Reason for Project
I filled in for a Google employee during her maternity leave. I took over projects that other team members did not have the capacity for.
My Audience
I mostly crafted and/or maintained help documentation catered toward internal employees. I also had a few opportunities to create help center articles for external Google users.
Working Skills Gained or Developed
Advanced skills in UX writing and practiced how to craft user-based documentation for a reader-centered approach
Built basic knowledge of HTML5 in Google's internal CMS (content management system)
Enhanced skills in G Suite (Gmail, Docs, Slides, Sheets, Calendar, Hangouts, Sites, etc.)
Refined collaboration skills, locally and globally through video conferences and in-person team meetings
Below, you will find 4 of my published help center articles. 3 are for internal employees, and 1 is catered toward external users.
Google Writing Samples
Feel free to click on each sample to get a bigger view.
Note: These articles were created in Google's internal content management system. I had to copy them over into a Google doc to maintain as much original integrity of the samples as possible.
The blue headings are meant to be expandable text, to be hidden until clicked for better user experience while reading.
Non-header text that is blue indicates a hyperlink.
