    An attentiveness to user experience has been a guiding theme in my career as a researcher, strategist, educator, and instructional designer. I was trained as a PhD-level anthropologist to see a holistic picture of the human experience through a variety of research methodologies, and to use the data to tell engaging stories about those human experiences. As a seasoned User Researcher and social scientist, I bring a comprehensive understanding of user research methodologies tailored to identify user pain points and drive actionable business insights. Trained in holistic research analysis, I excel at cross-comparing qualitative and quantitative data sources to tell a complete story about why a business phenomenon is happening. My dual experience as a researcher and instructional designer has shaped me into a data storyteller, able to craft research insights into compelling, engaging, and empathy-inspiring narratives for diverse stakeholders. My natural curiosity and passion for optimizing experiences is an asset not only for my clients' customers, but also for my collaborators.

    My philosophy is that I succeed as a learning and development professional only if the learner succeeds. My career is dedicated to supporting others as they grow personally and professionally. Throughout my career I have successfully applied instructional design models, adult learning theory, and principles of learning sciences to create impactful learning solutions. I have extensive experience with models such as ADDIE and Agile (SAM), which I’ve used to streamline curriculum development and optimize project timelines. My approach consistently integrates adult learning theories, focusing on relevance, engagement, and self-direction, which has been instrumental in enhancing learning retention and satisfaction. I bring more than 15 years of experience with a variety of tools and technologies including Learning Management Systems (LMS), video, audio, and graphic production tools, and SCORM development software (e.g., Articulate360 suite, Adobe Captivate, SnagIt, Camtasia).
