About

I’m a learning experience designer and consultant with 18+ years of experience creating practical, engaging learning for adults. I partner with subject matter experts to turn complex topics into clear course content, facilitator resources, and interactive materials that support real application in the workplace.

I’m also hands-on with modern AI tools and learning technology, using Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, and Grok alongside platforms like Brightspace, Canvas, and Blackboard. From onboarding programs and live learning series to skills-based assessments and custom learning applications, I focus on accessible, learner-centered design that aligns with organizational goals.
