Disability Etiquette:
Training & Education Resource
I developed this six-page, full-color publication for education and training. It replaced two outdated tri-fold brochures with overlapping content and 1980s-style clipart.The new brochure was co-written with our Associate Director with design by our print vendor.
Coalition Quarterly: Magazine
I managed all aspects of production, list management, and postal delivery for the Tennessee Disability Coalition’s quarterly magazine.Issues were typically 12 or 16 pages, printed in glossy full color. Design was handled by our print vendor. Each issue was mailed to more than 7,000 Tennesseans and promoted through our website, e-newsletters, social media, and events.
Regulatory Comments:
Restraint & Seclusion in Education
I submitted these comments in response to proposed changes to Tennessee’s school regulations on restraint and seclusion. The changes relaxed protections for children with disabilities, increasing the risk of harm in the classroom.The submission includes a formal cover letter and five pages of detailed commentary.

Autism Equity Act: Journey & Policy
The Coalition Quarterly magazine featured content about the Autism Equity Act shortly after its passage in Tennessee in 2006.I crafted the package with two articles by myself, one about the journey to passage and other explaining the legislation in plain, accessible language for parents.It includes are two photos highlighting families, legislators, and the Governor (photos by someone else). In addition, there are shout-outs to legislative sponsors as a thank you.
Text Messaging: Editorial Support
As a member of the Cure HHT marketing team, I managed the text messaging platform, handled testing and delivery, and revised original message drafts to reduce length and improve flow, often by streamlining redundant words and phrases.Images, links, and initial drafts were provided by others.
Disability Action Network: Outreach
The Disability Action Network emerged as the next phase of the Coalition’s longstanding Vote! Campaign, prompting the need for new outreach materials.I developed the written content and worked with an outside designer on the layout of a full-page tri-fold. The Capitol building logo was originally created for Disability Days on the Hill by a freelance designer I hired in exchange for publicity.
