What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values collaboration and innovation in educational design, where I can contribute to impactful learning experiences.

I am an instructional designer and learning strategist with a robust background in curriculum development, literacy intervention, and educational content evaluation. My expertise lies in creating engaging, learner-centered experiences that align with clear objectives and measurable outcomes. I am known for my ability to analyze assessment data, collaborate with subject matter experts, and iterate designs for continuous improvement. My passion is empowering learners and teams through thoughtful, evidence-based design and delivery.

In my recent role as a Learning Support Specialist at Tutored by Teachers, I designed and delivered virtual interventions aligned to targeted literacy skills for K–5 students. I developed digital learning materials and facilitated small-group instruction tailored by formative assessment results, applying tools like Nearpod and Google Slides to enhance learner engagement. My previous experience as an Instructional Consultant and Reading Interventionist has equipped me with the skills to create custom learning pathways and collaborate effectively with families and educators to refine instructional strategies.

Throughout my career, I have designed scaffolded literacy interventions and developed content that addresses phonemic awareness, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension. My work has consistently focused on aligning instruction with assessment, leading to improved student achievement. I am committed to leveraging my skills in instructional design to foster an environment where every learner can thrive.
