Services

So, what can I do for you?

While always enthusiastic to take on new challenges and roles, some of my most popular services include:

Consultancy

Whether it be for compliance standards, policy crafting, applied cryptography or even just learning the best writing practices, a specialised consultant may be what it takes to get on track. Few or plenty, I have the answers to your questions - and if I don't, I know exactly where to find them.

Technical Writing

Does your super awesome open-source project suffer from lackluster documentation? Tired of getting asked the same support questions over and over? A technical writer is exactly what you need to bring your usability and userbase up while simultaneously bringing your ticket count down.

Penetration Testing

If you do any work with payment processing, healthcare or web applications, you are likely no stranger to stress and compliance testing. With a depth of experience in HIPAA, PCI, OWASP, social engineering and pentesting tools / methodology, I make a strong addition to any security auditing team.

Project Management

PMs must do more than simply lead - they must inspire the people they work with and tackle the big challenges head-on. I bring an innovative voice, a variety of successful experiences and a 'say it how it is' personality to the table that are sure to enhance any projects management team.

Marketing & Branding

Looking to give identity to your new startup or give a facelift to your existing organisation? Or perhaps your audience growth is stalling out? I have the vision and creative ability to supply you with the fresh and memorable brand strategy needed to set yourself apart from the noise.

Web Development

If your website or UI looks like 2006 just threw up all over it, it may be time to consider hiring a web developer to give it some TLC. Full websites, application interfaces, single pages, touch-ups and individual elements; whatever your needs, I've got you covered from start to finish.
