What I'm looking for

I seek a role designing data-driven, AI-enhanced digital learning solutions where I can lead curriculum design, improve learner outcomes, and collaborate cross-functionally.

I am an innovative Instructional Designer with a Master’s in Instructional Design and Technology, experienced in data-driven learning solutions, AI-enhanced content development, and multimedia learning experiences across academic, corporate, and EdTech environments. I build scalable digital learning solutions, leverage LMS platforms (Canvas, Oasis, Brightspace) and tools like Articulate 360 and Adobe Captivate to improve learner engagement, retention, and performance.

I confidently use AI tools for video and image generation (MidJourney, HeyGen, Kling), manage projects with Trello and Slack, and apply instructional models (ADDIE, SAM, Bloom’s Taxonomy) to design effective curricula and assessments. My work includes course design and delivery, virtual facilitation, and measurable improvements such as increased tool utilization and enrollment growth.
