Former Military Analyst | Expert Editor, Writer & Analyst

Stacy L.

Hello! I'm an ex-military analyst with a deep passion for clear, concise, and impactful communication. My journey includes two decades of hands-on experience in a demanding military environment, where I honed my skills in writing government articles and white papers, meticulously editing complex government documents, and performing rigorous critical thinking and analysis.
Beyond just performing these tasks, I spent 20 years working my way up and then actively training new employees—from 17 to 60 years old—on the very skills I mastered. This wasn't just theory; it was college-level, on-the-job training taught by top professionals, focusing on active writing, developing strong critical thinking abilities, and mastering self-editing techniques to ensure their work was flawless before review. I literally wrote the book on how to effectively communicate in a high-stakes environment.
While my practical expertise stems from this intensive military background, my academic foundation includes an AA in General Studies with a focus on Cultural Anthropology. This, combined with my personal pursuit of reading vast amounts of English literature, gives me a unique perspective on language, narrative, and the nuances of effective communication across various contexts.
Whether you need to refine your writing style, develop robust critical thinking skills, master effective editing, or understand how to structure compelling arguments for essays, reports, or professional documents, I bring a wealth of real-world experience and a proven track record of guiding students to success. I'm excited to help you achieve your communication goals!
