Why the Name ButterFat?
My career began in the mid 1980s. At the time, I wrote lots of poetry and articles while working various retail and reprographics jobs. After being published for a number of years, I landed a coveted Technical Writing internship at Cadence Design Systems, an electrical engineering software firm in San Jose, CA. I was soon immersed in the physics-laden world of integrated circuit testing and manufacturing software, a highly complex and fascinating field. Over the next ten years, I went on to write and edit documentation about semi conductors, networking hardware, medical devices, graphic-based entertainment programs, data recovery programs, and IT processes, among others. In addition, I've written excellent sales and marketing copy for a diverse group of businesses and have continued to write freelance articles for magazines, periodicals, and newspapers. In January 2006, ButterFat Publishing & Writing Services was born. My greatest satisfaction comes from helping clients achieve their marketing and sales expectations in exciting and unique ways. I love finding methods for tackling client challenges. I love the process of working with positive business owners to pinpoint what they want and then crafting excellent copy, technical, or creative writing to achieve their goals. Want to know more?

Well, for one, I love butterfat (in all it's glorious forms and let's face it, who doesn't?), but I wanted a company name that would accomplish several things: be memorable, be an homage to my upbringing in a dairy region of Oregon, and pay tribute to the dairy town in which I now live- Ferndale, CA.
