About:
The Who:
Abigail Lee is an experienced resume writer, editor, and proofreader. Driven by her love of the English language and her strong desire to provide excellent service, she takes pride in her business, Write on Top (formerly Carry on Resumes a 501c3 nonprofit). For over five years she has written resumes for U.S. Veterans. As a nonprofit, her services were provided at no cost to our Veterans. Abigail possesses the keen ability to interpret the military experience, training, and education into civilian language. Successful in her research, translation, and writing, 94% of her clients receive interviews. “I got an interview!” is the message that makes her day! As a hands-on administrator, she is more than competent to proofread and edit grant proposals, website content, press releases, marketing materials, and newsletters. Anything written in the English language!
Most valued in her personal life is family that consists of three grown children and four grandchildren. Located in the Pacific Northwest she enjoys hiking and spending time by the water with her dogs. As an ethical vegetarian, she is enthusiastic about creating healthy foods for her family.
The Why:
Veteran Resumes: A successful reintegration, from military life to civilian, begins with securing employment that is both meaningful and financially sustaining. Relieving the time consuming, stressful task of composing a strong resume is how Write on Top will remove one of the many stressors of reintegration, while showing our Veterans that we have their backs.
Civilian Resumes: In spring of 2020, due to the rate of unemployment created by Covid-19, we added civilian resumes to our menu of services. Civilian resumes are quite simple when compared to a Veteran resume. Our research into the translation of skills, education and experience of military service is extensive. We are able to use those same research and translation skills to convey a civilian's transferable skills as personal assets.
It is one of our greatest moments when we hear, "I got the interview!".
Freelance Writing: It may seem strange to many, but we really do enjoy proofreading, editing, and copy-writing. Little typos can drive us just nuts! It's a gift and a curse to notice every mistake in a book, newsletter, email, and so on. Let us know how we can assist you in creating the perfect, professional copy.
