About Tracy Hume

Photo of Tracy HumeMy specialty is writing long-form B2B pieces (ghostwritten books, case studies, white papers and related deliverables) about complex topics. I have specific expertise in healthcare information technology and in enterprise-level technology for higher education.

Over the course of my career I have written about subjects ranging from revenue cycle management to cybersecurity to enterprise-level information technology strategies for healthcare. I enjoy interviewing subject matter experts (SMEs) and writing about challenging topics.

In addition to B2B writing, I also have expertise in writing grant proposals for institutions of higher education. I have written more than $20 million in funded grants for institutions of higher education including Polytechnic University (now called the Polytechnic Institute of New York University), Delta State University (MS), the University of Bridgeport (CT), Ocean County College (NJ), Mt. Hood Community College (OR), Lake Superior College (MN) and others.

My articles, essays and opinion pieces have been published in the Healthcare IT News, the Energy PipelineWeight Watchers® MagazineThe Denver Post, the San Francisco ChronicleThe Sacramento Bee, the Greeley Tribune, the Paso Robles Country News and the Paso Robles Daily Press.

I’m a devotee of lifelong learning. In 2014, I earned a certificate in Healthcare Information Technology from the University of California, San Diego Extension. In 2016 I completed a college program in nonfiction ghostwriting. In 2017, my first ghostwritten book — on a healthcare industry topic — was published. The book gained great traction, with dozens of media mentions and hundreds of results on Google. Since then, I have ghostwritten two more books on healthcare industry topics.

When I am not writing, I love to dance. I have taken lessons in ballet, ballroom dance, belly dance, clogging, country swing, improvisation, square dancing, jazz and tap. I performed for several years with the Sutter’s Stompers (a Sacramento-based clogging group) and later with the Cottonwood Cloggers, a dance troupe I established in Colorado. I spend a lot of my free time … dancing. Square dancing, ballroom dancing, country line dancing … I’m not picky. As long as there is dancing involved, I’m in!

I live with my family in Colorado, where I delight in the wit, wisdom (and tech support) provided by my two sons.
