Michele Hackshall

Copywriter and Technical Writer

Belrose, NSW | www.hahnwriting.com.au

Michele Hackshall is a marketing communications expert and technical writer who has written everything from fridge magnets to books. With over twelve years' experience with some of Australia's most prominent brands, she started Hahn Writing Services in 2006. Her gift lies in the ability to grasp technical concepts and translate them into clear and easy prose for easy understanding by a larger audience.

Michele is also a wife and mother of two sassy girls who constantly keep her on her toes! She chose to become a soloist as a way to balance her own needs as a person with those as a parent, because the happier you are as a person, the better you will be as a parent.
