Ask to see my portfolio! With a background in instructional design, digital communication, and visual storytelling, I design learning and content experiences that are clear, engaging, and built to resonate across diverse audiences and learning styles. I believe strong visuals aren’t just “nice to have”—they are essential for clarity, retention, and engagement, and should always be grounded in learning science, user experience, and intentional design strategy. My work sits at the intersection of instructional design, UX/UI thinking, and strategic communication—where content isn’t just created, but thoughtfully designed to guide understanding, influence action, and deliver results. I partner with schools, businesses, and organizations to develop: + Learning experiences and training programs + Course design and instructional materials + Presentations and executive-level decks + Visual storytelling and branded content + Marketing and communication assets In addition, I bring experience in: + Social media strategy and content planning (audience-first, engagement-driven storytelling) + Data analytics and visualization (turning complex data into clear, compelling narratives) + UX/UI-informed design (ensuring materials are intuitive, accessible, and user-centered) + Content systems and brand alignment (creating consistency across platforms and experiences) Whether I’m building a training module, designing a presentation, or developing a content strategy, I approach every project with the same goal: to make complex ideas simple, meaningful, and actionable. Partnering with me means working collaboratively to create materials that educate, engage, and inspire - while staying rooted in best practices across learning design, communication, and user experience. I’m especially drawn to projects where there’s a strong vision and a desire to make a real impact. So, what’s your big idea?

I help growing teams use AI, automation, and better systems to clean up customer success and operations. My background is in enterprise customer success, customer operations, and hands-on building. I’ve managed portfolios of 90–100 accounts, led onboarding and business reviews at scale, and built workflows across HubSpot, Salesforce, Clay, Apollo, Zapier, and AI tools. I also shipped an app from scratch. That part matters because I’m not just talking about AI or automation from the outside. I’ve used AI-assisted tools to take an idea from concept to live product, including the user flow, content, backend setup, launch planning, and iteration. That gives me a practical understanding of how teams can use AI to move faster without making their systems messy. Clients usually hire me for: AI workflow setup HubSpot cleanup and automation Customer onboarding systems CS playbooks and retention workflows Apollo and Zapier automations Customer health scoring Reporting dashboards Internal process cleanup AI-assisted operations support I work best with founders, small teams, and growing companies that need someone who understands the customer side, the systems side, and the reality of getting work shipped. If you need someone who can think through the process, build the workflow, and make it easier for your team to run, I can help.
