A picture of Tracie Lindquist

Hello!

My Name is Tracie Lindquist

I am an instructional designer and technical writer.

Some people think that anyone with deep knowledge of a task or business process can design and deliver a robust learning program or write a clear and concise technical document. That’s not always the case.

That’s where I come in...

My job is to assess performance and identify skill gaps and opportunities for knowledge transfer. I work with subject matter experts to identify the needs of their business and their learners and narrow the proposed content down to the most important stuff.

I see the little pictures that make up the bigger picture

I am a big picture systems thinker who can identify how changes to one part of the system might affect the other parts.

I can break complex processes and procedures down into their component parts and then explain those parts in easy to understand language.

No jargon.

No filler.

No crazy circuitous logic.

Just knowledge transfer and learning that has a logical flow and connects to the real world.

I am passionate about what I do.

Finding creative ways to help people improve themselves is what brings me joy. Whether it’s creating technical documentation, developing learning content, or working on my latest creative writing project, I’m passionate about the work I do.

Let me share my passion with you!

I do my best work when I am collaborating with intelligent, authentic, and inspiring people in environments that encourage open communication and thoughtful innovation, where I am constantly challenged to learn new things. I strive to be progressive and proactive and stay abreast of new technological developments and industry trends. I’m willing to try them out, if I think they’ll improve the product or the process. I understand that the first idea is rarely the best idea. I am open-minded and willing to consider new approaches. I care about my clients. I care about my projects. I care about the quality of my work.
