As a small, women-owned business, we know what it means to be both scrappy and consultative. Our team brings a variety of skill sets to diverse projects with a unifying purpose to bring clarity to a cluttered world. For more than 20 years, we’ve done just that by letting these values guide us.

Our Team
Writers, editors, designers, and project managers. McMul hires W-2 employees—not contract writers or freelance editors—so every person placed on your project has been tested, trained, and mentored. And every team member is backed by a deep pool of additional resources if you need to quickly scale up.
The luck of the Irish brought Paige to McMul on St. Patrick’s Day 2008. Pickier than any client, she pushes the team to consistently deliver their best work.
As the self-described bean counter at McMul, Rob helps keep us in the green. Despite the pun of his name, we’ve trusted him to safeguard our profits since 1997.
If there’s a person Ted can’t talk to, he hasn’t met them yet. He’s easily excited (think golden retriever), but he’s just as sincerely invested in connecting people and helping them succeed.
As Walt Disney said, “There’s no magic in magic. It’s all in the details.” Steven is tracking hundreds of things behind the scenes to keep our show running smoothly—just like magic!
This two-time limerick contest winner is known for her clever prose, which makes her an excellent marketing writer. She’s been impressing McMul clients with her writing and editing since 2015.
For another picture of Synthia, look up “efficient” in the dictionary. She adeptly balances her instructional design expertise with managing our projects team, making sure everyone is in the right role and projects are completed on time and to expectations.
Excelling as an editor then writer then project leader, our Jessie-of-all-trades amazes us with her always-growing skillset. This growth mindset—and a smart move to get her master’s degree in adult education—makes her the perfect training manager for McMul, inspiring our diverse team to keep their skills sharp.
Extreme dedication is what gets Jenn up at 4 a.m. for international client meetings. Queen of managing calls, schedules, and personalities, Jenn is an ideal keep-your-cool project manager.
Having been with McMul since 2005, Deb has mentored nearly every editor on our current team. She is as good at carefully explaining style decisions as she is at matching a client’s tone.
Brianne is so proactive, she might just be a mind reader. Whether writing a blog, managing a schedule, or organizing a contacts database, she impressively delivers with little direction.
Long-time graphic designer and more recent instructional designer, Dave is skilled at listening to client concerns and creating the right graphic or training interaction for the need.
