I’m an Instructional Designer and eLearning Developer with experience in biomedical engineering and sales enablement content and a strong focus on backward design and story-driven strategies.

My career in instructional design began 15 years ago as a side task when asked to lead a company-wide training on our new VOIP system. I familiarized myself with the product through consulting with the VOIP product rep (SME) and developed a company-specific course that I would facilitate. Over the next two years, I designed and led multiple courses on relevant topics for that organization. I pursued formal degrees in education, curriculum, and instruction and have found my niche as an instructional designer.

I design engaging learning solutions aligned with organizational objectives. My background bridges corporate experience with formal training in Instructional Design and provides the ability to empathize with a diverse group of adult learners. I identify problems and create solutions to meet organizational needs effectively.

Core Competencies: Instructional Design, Program Development, Facilitation, Presentation, Data Analysis, Needs Analysis, Backward Design, Universal Design for Learning (UDL), ADDIE, Action Mapping.
