I've spent more than twelve years taking complicated subject matter and turning it into training people can actually use. Sometimes that means starting with a pile of SME notes and building the curriculum from the ground up. Sometimes it's rebuilding an existing course, developing interactive Storyline training, or researching content that has to stand up to regulatory or compliance review. My work spans healthcare, legal education, real estate licensing, construction safety, workforce development, onboarding, and other specialized industries. I am particularly strong when the content is complex, unfamiliar, or regulated and someone needs to be able to trust the finished product. I partner closely with subject matter experts and quickly learn unfamiliar industries. My current work includes collaborating with a Harvard-educated attorney and law professor on advanced legal education, translating sophisticated legal concepts and source material into structured learning without losing the nuance of the subject matter. If a regulation is cited in a lesson, I verify it against the actual statute or administrative code. I don't assume existing content is correct. I cross-reference, confirm, and flag discrepancies before they become compliance issues later. I recently completed a state licensing curriculum update involving 275 learning objectives across 18 modules for a 90-hour Arizona real estate course. I verified statutory citations, collaborated with SMEs, managed regulatory content, and delivered more than 1,000 validated assessment questions on schedule.
