Message

I am a university-trained Instructional Designer and credentialed educator with over a decade of experience across academia and corporate training. My experience combines a Master's in Instructional Systems & Learning Technologies (FSU) with hands-on expertise in designing online learning modules, administering LMS platforms, and partnering with faculty to build engaging digital curricula. Skilled in Adobe Creative Suite, Articulate Storyline, and translating complex subject matter into student-centered digital learning experiences.

I am a learning architect with a teacher's intuition. Not satisfied to simply disseminate information, my aim is always retention through relevance. Information without application is just trivia. Save that for Thursday nights at O'Grady's Pub.
