Knowledge & Information Architect

hi, i'm randy.

I'm a SF Bay Area-based Webflow Developer and Knowledge Management Professional.

WHAT I DO

knowledge.
Copywriting.
Experience Design.
Business Development.

Knowledge Management is taking what's in your team's heads and putting that knowledge into content that everyone else can use.

Knowledge helps sales teams close deals faster, helps engineers solve issues quickly,  and allows organizations and their customers to make better and informed decisions.

I help large tech companies vet, build, and roll-out web applications that capture, structure, and disperse knowledge to colleagues and customers.

I help small businesses find their unique and compelling value propositions, and how they can serve their customers better than their competition.
