Guest Bio
In her own words.....
Hi, I’m Faith Peralta! I’m a Technical Writer at a software technology company in the health care industry. I’ve been a tech writer for almost six years. Thus, my journey into tech comm was roundabout. However, once I started on this tech writing path, I felt I’d finally found my career!
I graduated in 2003 with a B.A. in English from the University of North Texas and have worked in some form of health care ever since. I’ve been an STC (Society for Technical Communication) member for two years. Additionally, I joined my local Lone Star chapter and have met some wonderful people in the tech comm industry!
In my personal life, I love to cook! I like challenging myself to make new dishes! I’m also a portrait photographer. I love telling stories through art.
