Making a good impression on the web and in print plays an important role in improving accessibility and increasing reader engagement. Making something simple and clear is not an effortless process. As an author and independent researcher working on multiple projects of my own and for others, I have developed a set of skills that may benefit organizations and individuals wanting to tell their stories.
