    I've been developing engaging and creative training solutions for corporate clients for almost 30 years. While HTML-based web-based training (WBT) has been my primary focus, I have also developed blended learning solutions, instructor-led training, and virtual reality experiences. Most of my training has been web-based, but I have also developed instructor-led training, virtual reality, and blended learning solutions. As a long-term employee at a small custom firm, I'm comfortable wearing many different hats and problem-solving to overcome obstacles and ensure client satisfaction. I set high standards for myself and take pride in my dependability and professionalism.

    Hi, I’m Lili! I'm a writer, copy editor, and proofreader with an M.A. Communications from Stanford University. I've loved words since I was a little girl. as a voracious bookworm from the moment I learned how to read. As many of us did, I fell in love with the Nancy Drew series and started writing spy novels starring my imaginary twin sister and me. I know what you're thinking -- she was a sleuth, not a spy! Don't worry, I know. I LOVE languages! When I did my B.A., I also achieved a minor in Modern Languages - I studied Mandarin Chinese for 3 years, and I've been learning Spanish for over 10 years now. I enjoy psycho-linguistics and the cultural aspects of language, as well as the diversity of languages, especially in grammar structures. Additionally, I have a background in academic research and psychology, including a B.A. Psychology from Stanford University, where our team published a paper in Psychological Science (see below). I love STEM topics and have recently taken some wonderful classes in genetics, anatomy, and medical terminology. Perhaps unsurprisingly, my career took a turn toward the Entertainment and Communications industry after graduating with my Master's degree - so much of my recent experience has been working on set, hosting a television talk show, and writing and editing scripts/screenplays. Thanks for reading. Trust me, I'd love to learn more about you too! :) PUBLICATIONS: Misleading Health Consumers Through Violations of Communicative Norms: A Case Study of Online Diabetes Education Markman et al. 2018 Psychological Science
