Staff Directory

The Society’s staff represents the core operational team responsible for developing, planning, and managing the entire portfolio of products and services offered by STC.

Kathryn Burton

Chief Executive Officer

When I visualize the future of STC, here's what I see: STC shapes and promotes the field of technical communication. It provides education for technical communicators at every level--from the most advanced practitioner to the novice--through the annual conference, certificate programs, and webinars.

Lloyd Tucker

Deputy Executive Director

Education is the most valuable product an organization can offer its members or employees. While STC currently offers tremendous educational opportunities, I envision the time when STC has an education and training program that is without peer in either the nonprofit or private technical communication world. 

Greg Larsen

Chief Financial Officer

I see the Finance Department delivering great customer service while following best business practices and maintaining financial integrity. Our members expect and deserve to have their resources used in a responsible manner with appropriate accountability. Complete, accurate, and timely financial information is critical to every organization in order to successfully accomplish their mission and we will deliver.  

Steve Skojec

Director of Community Relations

STC exists to serve the profession of technical communication, and at the heart of this mission stands our membership. The facilitation of excellent communication between the organization and its members enables productive collaboration, maximizes the utilization of mutual resources, and is thus essential to our task. Listening to members’ needs and concerns and proactively offering solutions that provide value and benefit to the profession is how we will chart our course toward the future.

Liz Pohland

Director of Publications and Editor of Intercom

My vision for Intercom and all STC publications is that they are cutting-edge and address a wide readership, providing both a venue for essential research and practical examples/applications of technical communication in a space fostering open knowledge sharing and conversation. With one foot in industry and one in the academy, I hope to lead STC in providing clear communication within its publications and also in balancing the relationship between research and practice.

Chip Boyd

IT/Web Content Manager

The future of the Web can seem daunting: the push toward social everything coupled with the ever-increasing lack of verifiable content builds a dark forest for the common user. With STC, I hope to illuminate the snares and traps of the growing Internet. The incredible content that STC can provide needs only a simple, straightforward, and user-oriented way to reach the world. I am eager to work with STC and its members to lead the way.

Kevin Cuddihy

Media Manager

Writing at its core is meant to inform, to educate, or to entertain. The best writing, I believe, does all three. My goal for the next few years is to assist in making sure the STC publications fulfill that promise (with as few distracting mistakes as humanly possible). Be it Intercom, Technical Communication, the STC's Notebook blog, or any of the emails or other communication from STC, I want it to be the most interesting and free of errors it can be.

Megan Fraser

Assistant Manager of Community Relations

Assisting the members, communities, and individuals with questions and resources is essential in fulfilling STC’s goals. My hope is that in serving our customers in a prompt, courteous, and helpful manner will make STC’s customer service stand out as an important asset in forming STC as not only a company with outstanding resources but also excellent service to its members.
