Annette Wierstra (Senior Partner) is a technical writer who has been writing professionally for over 10 years. She has experience creating and managing multiple training and procedural projects with a focus on water and wastewater treatment, software and policy manuals. Annette has a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Alberta but it was at Grant MacEwan where she discovered her true calling. While earning her Bachelor of Applied Communications in Professional Writing Annette discovered that she actually liked technical documentation and organizing information. She started her technical writing career working at EPCOR Water Services for four years.

Before working as a technical writer, Annette worked as a journalist and managing editor. She also wrote, managed and developed content for websites. Her varied experience means that she has a range of writing and project management skills to create your project deliverable. In her spare time, Annette also teaches technical writing in the Professional Writing program at Grant MacEwan Community College.

Pamela Scott (Senior Partner) has always loved to write but it wasn't until she found a way to marry her logical and practical side with her creative side, that she found her career. After 7 years working in customer service, she went to Grant Macewan and took one year of general studies hoping to find that elusive "love'. She fell in love with professional writing and thought she might be a speechwriter until she discovered Technical writing. Pamela completed her Diploma in Professional Writing in 2004. She then began working as a technical writer for EPCOR until a new career choose her. Pamela has always been happiest and most effective when she has lots of things on the go, so right now with managing a family and business she says, "I feel like I finally got it right."
