Shana Johnstone

Profile

I work in the subject areas of climate change and resilience, land-use planning and development, sustainability, natural hazards, housing, transportation, energy, water, waste, agriculture, health (especially women’s health), fitness, and social wellbeing. Projects in these areas include reports, plans, policy documents, guides, books, summaries, and web content. I specialize in content organization, clarifying concepts, and matching language and tone to the audience. I also offer document design.
