I’m a senior learning experience designer and instructional designer with 9+ years of experience leading and developing digital learning across higher education, corporate, nonprofit, certification, workforce development, government, and K–12 settings. I help clients turn complex content, messy requirements, and stakeholder input into clear, engaging, scalable learning experiences. My work spans the full design and development lifecycle, including needs analysis, curriculum and course architecture, storyboarding, assessment design, interactive learning, multimedia, LMS implementation, accessibility, quality review, and evaluation. I’m equally comfortable working at the strategic and hands-on levels. I can facilitate discovery with stakeholders and SMEs, recommend the right learning approach, build courses in tools like Articulate Storyline and Rise, create multimedia and video, support LMS implementation and course deployment, and lead projects through review and launch. My experience includes higher-education course redesign, certification and assessment development, LMS migrations, standards-based training, AI-enabled content development, interactive learning, video production, and multilingual learning. I have worked with faculty, technical SMEs, executive stakeholders, designers, developers, and media teams across complex projects with tight timelines and evolving requirements. I’m especially well suited for projects that need someone who can both figure out what the learning solution should be and help build it.
