Tiffini Theisen

I’m Tiffini, a writer and researcher with three decades of journalism experience, now orienting toward legacy preservation and oral history work while continuing selective editorial projects.

I write about healthcare, military and veterans issues, higher education, culture, environment, and faith communities. I specialize in translating complex information into clear narratives and preserving stories that matter.

What I offer

Editorial & Writing (ongoing):

  • Healthcare communication and patient education
  • Military and veterans storytelling
  • Higher education institutional narratives
  • Culture and arts coverage
  • Environmental and sustainability reporting
  • Faith community and spiritual content

My writing niches share a common thread. What connects them is a shared concern for what deserves care, dignity and long attention — the sacred embedded in everyday life. These are stories that matter beyond the 24-hour news cycle.

Legacy & Oral History (building practice):

  • Oral history interviewing and documentation
  • Personal and institutional legacy preservation
  • Archival research and narrative synthesis

My work has appeared in the Orlando Sentinel, Palm Beach Post, Tampa Tribune, Chicago Tribune, Military.com, St. Pete Life Magazine, and other publications. I currently partner with Orlando Health on healthcare education content.

I’m particularly interested in work at the intersection of storytelling, memory and lived experience — whether that’s healthcare communications, veterans narratives, institutional histories, or legacy preservation projects.
