Hire the Best Education Technology Specialists

Hi, I'm Dr. Francia. Building on a diverse 30-year career spanning academic leadership, communications, and consulting across corporate, nonprofit, and government sectors, I am a bilingual (ENG/SPA) Senior Executive who specializes in turning organizational chaos into streamlined, high-ROI systems. Today, I partner with CEOs to scale their business operations, architect global education programs, and integrate no-code AI solutions. If your business operations or learning programs feel chaotic, manual, or scattered, I am the dedicated executive partner who will step in, take ownership, and build the systems to help you scale seamlessly. What I Deliver as Your Dedicated Operations Leader: ✔️ End-to-End Operational Ownership: I take full control of your complex logistics, program execution, and continuous improvement metrics so you can focus on high-level strategy. ✔️ Native Platform Architecture & Setup From Scratch: I know how to build and launch complete educational ecosystems from the ground up. Whether it is a global learning program, a digital academy, or an international summit, I set up everything from scratch on enterprise platforms like Circle, TalentLMS, Canvas, RingCentral, and various other Learning Management Systems (LMS). ✔️ SME Collaboration & Advanced Program Architecture: I constantly partner with cross-functional Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to extract their specialized knowledge and productize it into scalable, high-impact learning tracks. I design and develop the end-to-end curriculum pipeline for a wide range of educational assets, from corporate L&D programs to fully accredited Master's degree courses. ✔️ Digital Academy Creation: I recently directed the full-cycle development and launch of 14 distinct microlearning certifications for a global tech community. While SMEs delivered the raw video lessons, I developed the entirety of the remaining course content and architected the complete learning ecosystem from scratch natively within the Circle platform, including knowledge checks, community practice labs, and final credentialing. ✔️ Accreditation, Compliance & State Standards Alignment: I bridge the gap between technology and academic rigor. I have driven major accreditation readiness (including Cognia) and aligned online curricula with Common Core and other specific state standards for institutions. I expertly manage compliance documentation and apply Quality Matters (QM) frameworks to ensure your programs pass rigorous audits. ✔️ Responsible AI Governance & Tech Adoption: While I partner with specialized SMEs to shape complex AI curricula, I personally ensure your digital transformation is safe. Drawing on my experience as a recurring guest lecturer on Generative AI, I help organizations implement ethical AI guardrails, mitigate algorithmic bias, and protect data privacy during digital rollouts. ✔️ No-Code Workflow Automation (Circle): I engineer highly efficient systems without writing custom code. Specifically within the Circle platform, I have architected and deployed over 100 complex, no-code automated workflows to manage enrollments, module drip-releases, and automated badge credentialing, completely eliminating manual administrative overhead. ✔️ Tech-Savvy & Platform-Agnostic Execution: I am a rapid learner of new technologies. I quickly adapt to your organization's unique tech stack, troubleshoot complex systems, and seamlessly implement new tools to drive immediate efficiency. ✔️ Large-Scale In-Person & Virtual Summit Operations: I expertly direct complex logistics for massive global events. I recently spearheaded on-site operations for a 3-day international summit in San Francisco, supervising 130+ volunteers and managing on-site execution for 1,000+ attendees. Alongside in-person logistics, I scale virtual production pipelines, driving VIP speaker management and flawless live broadcasts for up to 2,000+ expected global participants. ✔️ Strategic Partnerships & Cross-Functional Leadership: I act as the frontline for strategic partnerships, leading collaboration calls and evaluating global growth opportunities. I seamlessly align stakeholders, multicultural remote teams, and executives to ensure flawless execution. Partnering with Me: As a remote-first leader with a Ph.D., I thrive on bringing deep organization, strategic alignment, and execution rigor to my clients. If you are looking for a dedicated operational partner to take the chaos completely off your plate, let's connect to discuss your vision.

Do you need to build a new training program from the ground up? Do you have existing programs that are outdated, ineffective, fragmented, or missing a strong instructional design foundation? Do you just need a reliable training and development partner? I can help. Clients partner with me when they are preparing for workforce transitions, capturing subject matter expertise before retirement or turnover, scaling onboarding efforts, modernizing training programs, or creating systems that support long-term organizational growth. I can help transform complex information into structured, sustainable training programs. I bring strategy, architecture, structure, and execution to initiatives designed to perform—not simply inform.
