I've been the project manager of more than 30 projects, including corporate product training, customer training, leadership development, new hire onboarding and academic content ranging from college business courses, to high-school chemistry to elementary math and gifted and talented programs. One of my areas of expertise is the learning cycle, which is the cognitive process by which adults (and children) learn and process information. I combine this with my knowledge of individual learning styles to create training and development programs with the best practice that are also engaging and effective to all types of learners.

    I'm a passionate business leader armed with a broad skillset in technical project management, instructional design, and customer/product enablement. My 17+ years of experience in a SaaS company that progressed from startup to enterprise has enabled me to become an adept problem solver, skilled at navigating through fast-paced environments. One of my proudest achievements is leading the transformation in customer engagement at Selligent, Inc. I utilized my technical writing skills and expertise in video production and editing to introduce instructional content that increased online customer engagement by 200%. I'm skilled with tools like Premiere Pro, After Effects, and Camtasia to create immersive and effective video material; but have also used dedicated instructional design programs like Adobe Captivate and Articulate Storyline when the material called for it. To me, it's all about using engaging storytelling techniques and the right software tools to convey complex information in a digestible way. Meanwhile, as a co-founder of a not-for-profit niche publishing company, I've learned to wear multiple hats, managing all facets of the business from design leadership to financial operations. This has also given me significant experience in branding, marketing, social media engagement and graphic design. In essence, if you're in need of a versatile professional who has a knack for creating impactful instructional content and driving customer success, I'd love to bring my unique blend of skills to the table for you!

    I am a passionate believer that training is not just about content, it’s about getting results as a consequence of delivering content in ways that engage learners, gain buy-in, and reinforce best practices. I have always understood that learning is a process, not an event. It begins long before the teachable moments happen and it continues until we see a difference in people's lives.
