My name is Theresa Hare and I am based in north London. I have been providing publishing support and technical authoring services since 1993, from my fully equipped home office. I specialise in artworking, designing, formatting, and authoring technical based documentation.
I work extensively with the Adobe suite including InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop.
My technical authoring experience is in manufacturing with creating user, installation and maintenance manuals. I recently worked with a UK based ophthalmic instrumentation manufacturer Keeler in designing several maintenance manuals. I’ve worked with one manufacture in gas detection systems for over 18 years, other work includes some military projects, mobile phone systems and a variety of translational works with translation companies.
I work closely with the engineers, gathering information, disseminating information from technical specifications and development documentation, recording installation steps with photos which I can later make into graphics as well as use as a record of steps. I manage clients’ assets, and develop workflows and QA procedures. In addition, I also look at branding and customer feedback by working with marketing departments and customer support.
Technical authoring charges are £25 per hour plus vat.
I can provide examples on request. If you would like further information about me or my services, please do not hesitate to get in touch
