Meet Hannah Jernigan
I’ve been working as a technical writer at VMware AirWatch since August 2012. I spent the first few years working on the technical documentation team before switching to technical marketing in November of 2016. My career experience prior to 2012 is in the education field, where I first mastered the art of writing instructional materials. My primary professional interests relate to user engagement and experience, as well using data and metrics to prove the effectiveness of the content EUC Technical Marketing produces.
Be there for it all—product announcements, free hands-on learning, access to EUC experts—at the biggest event of the year for EUC pros. Our last conference passes are waiting for you here.
