About

I’m Christie Collins, a strategic, people-focused leader with 20 years of experience building learning programs that drive real behavior change.

From developing e-learning and LMS solutions to managing vendors and internal teams, I’m energized by solving learning challenges that help people succeed—especially in healthcare environments where training quality directly supports patient care.
