What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can design and scale blended learning programs, mentor learners, use analytics to improve outcomes, and collaborate with stakeholders to align L&D with business goals.

I am a Learning & Development professional with 9+ years of experience as a career coach, communication trainer, and sales trainer, focused on improving employability and business outcomes.

I design and deliver blended learning programs—1:1 coaching, group workshops, webinars, and self-paced modules—using adult learning principles and instructional design methodologies to create measurable impact.

I routinely conduct training needs assessments for large learner cohorts, leverage LMS and e-learning tools, and use learning analytics, feedback, and NPS to refine programs; consistently ranked in the top 10% of coaches for engagement and satisfaction.

I collaborate with stakeholders and subject-matter experts to build succession plans, IDPs, and sales coaching modules, and I bring strong facilitation, content development, and project management skills to scale learning initiatives.
