: About Me

Hello everybody,

I am 28 years old and have quite a bit of experience writing. I love both technical and creative writing. My writing style is interpersonal and is much like I am having a conversation with the reader. I think that is what draws people into my articles. Although I have only written about 10 articles on Helium I have written many other articles, reports, poems, and short stories outside of this site. Of the 10 Articles I have written on Helium they have been highly rated and I am very proud of that. In order to get a better idea of my writing style I encourage you to check out my Helium articles. You can find them listed under the "Recent Articles" header on this webpage.

I have an Associate Degree in Architectural Technology through Northeast Wisconsin Technical College in Green Bay. I have worked in the engineering department of a major yacht manufacturer designing, editing, and drafting building documents for yachts. Also, I am in my final year of the Bachelor of Science Information and Communication Technology program with the University of Wisconsin Stout. My emphasis in this program is Written Communication; I've taken many English courses, and I love it. College has been kind to me. I have spent a total of 5 years in undergraduate studies. Fortunately I have experienced most of what college has to offer; not really the dormitory/party side of it, but the rest of it I have down. I enjoy education and have even helped develop a work study program outline for my former employer.

Working with different computer programs I've become a bit of a computer geek. Programs I have worked with are Word, Excel, Power Point, Outlook, AutoCAD, Inventor, AS400, Autodesk Product Stream, and Autodesk Design Review editing software. Learning new computer programs is a welcomed challenge. I feel that my computer knowledge has helped me to be a more well rounded and efficient writer.

For me, writing is all about being creative, and expressing the best ideas in a way people can relate to. I feel it is challenging and incredibly rewarding. I am looking forward to expanding my professional experience as an editor or web content writer.

Sincerely

- Kate Frewerd

"The Final Protest" "It never would have worked." She said under her breath. She thought of walking away, but then what would she do with herself. While the world was busy around her she could not hear it; silence had fallen around her. Traffic on the street before her sped past; the wind from the racing vehicles pulled her hair, blouse, and skirt away from the right side of her body. She heard the wind as the immaterial parts of her whipped through the air. She didn't move. Looking to her left and then to her right she could see them all walking past. Maybe she could gain strength from th...
