## About

```text
At UnifyHub, I develop structured online learning content for international learners, with clear objectives and progression. I create Cambridge B1, B2, and C1 materials, assessments, feedback activities, and targeted practice.

I adapt digital content to learner performance and knowledge gaps, and turn complex language concepts into accessible explanations. I use digital tools and AI-assisted workflows to develop and iterate on content.

At Salas Staffing, I coordinated internal training for employees in a remote fintech environment, managing schedules, virtual logistics, participant communication, and training records. I also maintained Airtable data to support reporting and process improvement.
