Senior Instructional Systems Designer building data-driven, learner-centered training that boosts adoption and ROI.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Instructional Systems Designer with 9+ years designing learner-centered curricula, course development, and training delivery for corporate, government, and higher-education audiences. I apply ADDIE and Agile methodologies, adult learning theory, assessment design, and curriculum planning to define measurable learning objectives and storyboard engaging learner experiences.
I’ve developed 30+ technical courses for 5,000+ learners, improving software adoption by 90% and training ROI by 95%. I use LMS analytics and data-driven iteration to measure effectiveness and refine programs—turning feedback, assessment results, and performance signals into practical course improvements.
At Data Society, I owned end-to-end curriculum work for data science, analytics, AI, and technical training—creating instructor guides, job aids, and documentation for ILT, vILT, and eLearning. I partnered with SMEs, facilitators, stakeholders, and leadership to translate complex technical content into accessible learning experiences, and I improved learner satisfaction by 80% through stronger learner-centered design and evaluation metrics.
I also integrate generative AI responsibly into instructional design workflows to streamline content development and rapid iteration (reducing cycle time by ~10 hours per course cycle). My approach stays grounded in learning outcomes, evaluation, and operational readiness—so instructors are prepared, training runs smoothly, and learners consistently get value from every module.
