Work Background
Content Development Specialist
SnowflakeContent Development Specialist
Mar. 2024 - Feb. 2025Houston, TX As the Content Development Specialist for the Sales Enablement department at Snowflake, I ensured account executives and solution engineers had engaging, accurate, and concise courses to learn how to sell Snowflake. I condensed course copy by an average of 20% — enhancing learner experience and increasing engagement while maintaining instructional quality — through strategic copywriting, UX writing, editing & proofreading, and creative storytelling. I taught myself how to build courses in Articulate Rise 360 to deliver content faster during a colleague's medical leave. I verified that the Snowflake style and branding guides were followed precisely and developed course templates, a writing checklist, and best practice guidelines to help writers create consistent courses to improve the benefit to the learners. I also designed and conducted training for the sales enablement content team to learn best practices for writing in a training environment. I created and maintained the Sales Enablement Terms Glossary, providing a document to be linked from courses. This ensured the terms were kept continuously up-to-date even as courses aged, provided consistent definitions, and allowed course writers to avoid creating a new glossary for each course.
