I am currently a documentation specialist editing and desktop publishing
environmental engineering documentation. I work on biological,
archaeological, and oral history documents. I also do environmental
assessments and environmental impact statements. In the near future I will
be transferring to a different position where I will be writing and
designing environmental public relations pieces.
