My work spans healthcare, government, travel and hospitality, digital marketing, and other industries, giving me insight into what works for different audiences. What I Bring to Your Project: Instructional Design I design and develop eLearning courses using proven adult learning principles. I create interactive scenarios, simulations, and assessments to assess learners' understanding. I create microlearning modules and quick-reference training resources, and develop blended learning solutions that combine digital and traditional training methods. Technical Skills & Tools I'm proficient with Articulate Storyline 360 for interactive course development, branching scenarios, and custom interactions.

I've led talent development work across large professional networks, including a program that earned recognition from a leading industry publication. I've worked inside complex, multi-department organizations and in highly regulated industries where getting training right really matters. Through my consulting practice, I've had the chance to work across even more sectors, each with their own unique workforce challenges. That cross-industry experience has given me a solid sense of how different organizations approach developing their people, and what it actually takes to build training that sticks. My Approach I combine adult learning principles with the right technology to create training that people want to complete. My process includes understanding your needs, working closely with your team, building a design, and refining it based on feedback. I focus on creating training that not only informs but also changes how people work.
