No time to train a technical writer?

Hi, I'm Ana.

I'm an Electronics Engineer turned Technical Writer specializing in software products for the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry.

My work goes beyond writing. I work directly with the software to understand workflows, verify feature behavior, create visual documentation, and translate complex functionality into clear, user-focused content. As part of Agile release cycles, I collaborate with product teams, identify documentation gaps, and help surface usability and workflow issues before they reach customers.

Whether you need onboarding guides, knowledge bases, BIM and MEP workflow documentation, release notes, or feature walkthroughs, I create documentation that helps users adopt your product with confidence.

Effective documentation starts with hands-on product knowledge. Here are some of the platforms and tools I've worked with:
