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.

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

Deputy Executive Director

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.

Liz Pohland

Director of Publications & Content Strategy; Intercom editor

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.

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.

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.

Kobla Fiagbedzi

Web & Systems Administrator

Elaine Gilliam

Meetings Manager

My role as meetings manager will be to create the best possible environment for the members of STC and other technical communication professionals to learn from the experts, have the opportunity to improve their skills and to spend time exchanging ideas with each other. STC is the leading professional organization for the industry and the best source for information. I look forward to assisting in making the conferences the definitive meeting place.

Sudha Kamath

Assistant Manager of Membership and Community Relations

Serving members, prospective members, chapters, and SIGS is essential to fulfilling STC’s commitments. I am here to help you in a prompt and courteous manner, ensuring members are aware of and take full advantage of their benefits, and prospective members come on board because they realize the value, connectivity, and prestige an STC membership can offer—whether reaching out to colleagues in their field and beyond, advancing their career, or considering a new path.

Stacey O'Donnell

Business Development Manager

To guarantee STC longevity, we must continually review member needs. We must provide value to new members as well as more experienced members. STC will develop valuable new products and services for its membership, which will not only enhance the membership experience from year to year, but also support STC members in all phases of their careers. Through this, STC members can continually look to the Society as a stronghold for the advancement of their professional careers today and in the future.

Barbra Sanders

Membership Manager

In this economy, STC members are looking for resources to help them survive and thrive in their workplaces. We work hard every day to make sure the programs, products, and services we provide will make a positive impact on our members’ professional lives. We want our members to know they can count on us and that we accept the challenge to be responsive to their needs now and in the future.

Marta Sokol

Senior Accountant

Accurate financial data is essential to the operation and management of any organization. With a budget of more than $3M, it is imperative that STC’s leaders and staff receive financial reports in a timely manner that can be trusted in order to make the informed decisions necessary. I am committed to providing that information. The money received from dues and other sources is entrusted to STC for the benefit of its members. We are mere stewards of that trust and must ensure that every dollar is properly accounted for and documented.
