I am one of the few freelancers on this platform who can walk out of an ICU, write a peer-reviewed literature review, and design a SCORM-compliant eLearning module at a professional level.
10+ Years at the Bedside | 3 Graduate Degrees | Hundreds of Deliverables Completed
REGISTERED NURSE · PhD IN PSYCHOLOGY · MASTER OF PUBLIC HEALTH · INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGNER · MEDICAL & ACADEMIC WRITER
This combination brings clinical depth, research rigor, and instructional value.
I specialize in medical writing, academic writing, instructional design, curriculum development, and eLearning for healthcare organizations, nursing schools, universities, publishers, and eLearning companies. My work is grounded in real clinical experience and graduate-level research expertise.
I have developed hundreds of NCLEX-style questions, critical care scenarios, CEU modules, exam banks, course modules, assessments, and curricula for nursing and allied health programs. I also provide thesis/dissertation editing, proofreading, developmental editing, restructuring, manuscript preparation, and research support.
CLINICAL & HEALTHCARE EXPERTISE
My clinical background includes perioperative and critical care experience across PACU, pre-op, post-op, ICU, OB, Labor and Delivery, and Pulmonary Stepdown. I hold ACLS, BLS, PALS, TNCC, and NIH Stroke Scale certifications, with ongoing CEUs in critical care, airway management, hemodynamics, and anesthesia concepts.
MEDICAL BILLING & CODING
During my hospital nursing career, I worked with billing teams on UB-04 claims, ICD-10-CM/PCS coding, DRG assignments, revenue codes, and documentation discrepancies aligned with Medicare and Medicaid requirements.
HIPAA & HEALTHCARE COMPLIANCE
My HIPAA experience is hands-on. I handled Protected Health Information daily, documented under HIPAA Privacy and Security Rules, and managed proper PHI handling during interdisciplinary rounds, patient handoffs, and family communications. I have also developed scenario-based healthcare compliance training.
ACADEMIC WRITING & RESEARCH
I provide proofreading, developmental editing, content restructuring, formatting, thesis/dissertation support, manuscript preparation, and academic writing using APA 7 and other required styles.
My research workflow includes critical appraisal and evidence synthesis using JBI, CASP, and PRISMA for manuscripts, theses, literature reviews, case studies, and evidence-based content.
INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN & ELEARNING
I create outcome-based learning experiences using ADDIE, Bloom's Taxonomy, Gagné's Nine Events, adult learning principles, and measurable learning objectives.
I develop healthcare and nursing courses, SCORM-compliant modules, LMS-ready courses, assessments, knowledge checks, scenario-based learning, clinical simulations, CEU courses, NCLEX content, faculty/staff training, curricula, and course materials.
ARTICULATE RISE 360
My Articulate experience is specifically hands-on with Articulate Rise 360, not simply Articulate products in general. I build responsive Rise 360 courses using interactive blocks, timelines, accordions, flashcards, multimedia, scenarios, knowledge checks, quizzes, assessments, and structured lesson flows.
I also use Rise 360's AI-assisted capabilities to accelerate brainstorming, organize course content, refine instructional language, generate activity ideas, and improve development efficiency. AI supports my workflow, but never replaces clinical judgment, research expertise, instructional design decisions, fact-checking, or final quality control.
LMS & ENTERPRISE LEARNING PLATFORMS
I have worked in Workday Learning LMS and similar enterprise LMS environments, with practical experience in how training content is uploaded, organized, assigned, delivered, tracked, and maintained. I understand LMS-ready structure, SCORM compatibility, learner accessibility, completion tracking, assessment logic, version control.
My LMS experience includes Workday Learning, Moodle, Blackboard, Thinkific, Teachable, and similar enterprise systems.
TOOLS & TECHNICAL SKILLS

AI & CONTENT QUALITY
I do not use AI-generated content as a substitute for professional expertise. Every project is reviewed, fact-checked, edited and tailored to the client's goals. When Rise AI is used, it supports efficiency while clinical judgment, research expertise, instructional design, and final quality control remain human-led.
