What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can design performance-based, accessible learning using Articulate 360 and LMSs—partnering closely with stakeholders to iterate continuously, improve engagement, and deliver measurable outcomes.

I’m an Instructional Designer with 16 years of experience building performance-based, technology-enhanced learning solutions across corporate and educational environments. I blend strong learning science with hands-on eLearning development to deliver training that learners can actually use.

In my recent work with Wells Fargo Learning & Development, I improved training clarity and performance outcomes by 28% and increased learner engagement by 25% through blended learning, video, and scenario-based eLearning aligned to business goals. I also accelerated project decision-making by 40% by engaging stakeholders, gathering requirements, and facilitating iterative review cycles.

I’m especially focused on accessibility and continuous improvement—enhancing accessibility compliance across enterprise modules by applying accessibility best practices, revising content for multimodal access, and updating materials to meet technical and hosting specifications. Before moving deeper into instructional design, I led classroom instruction as a bilingual educator and trained teams through train-the-trainer sessions on ELPS, TELPAS, and SIOP.
