About
He doesn’t know how to talk about himself. He finds that trying to answer the question “Who are you?” is a bit loaded. Because how is one supposed to tell a life story in a forty-five-minute interview? When all that is wanted is a three-minute response to the question. It makes him chuckle because he feels like he is trying out for a dating show, and all he can think about is the piña colada song. He is serious about making his deadlines. He also knows he can’t take himself too seriously, and yes, he can be a goofball.
Current Work
In his current role at Bristol Myers Squibb, he manages laboratory safety documentation. He also leads strategy sessions with teams to develop comprehensive documentation to boost operational efficiency. He has audited and organized the technical documentation to reduce redundant files,
which directly enhanced staff productivity and reduced customer inquiries.
As the sole Technical Writer, Ray has to manage his time between meetings with stakeholders, SMEs, and documentation management. But that is what he enjoys: collaborating with his teammates to ensure all documentation captures the necessary information. Ray strives to have his documentation clear and concise. He is not a fan of a “TL:DR” response.
