What I'm looking for

I'm looking to design accredited, learner-centred programmes and blended learning experiences, using research, instructional design and staff training to strengthen academic development and student success.

I'm designing the University of the Free State’s Advanced Academic Advising Professional Development Programme, applying curriculum development, academic research, ADDIE and Kolb’s experiential learning cycle in an NQF-accredited context.

I've developed curriculum and taught academic writing, critical thinking and research at UFS, including more than half of the 2024/2025 CALH 2508 curriculum. I also bring experience in staff training, editing, digital communications, functional testing and data management.
