What I'm looking for

I seek full-time remote roles leveraging curriculum QA, instructional design, and educational therapy where I can improve learner outcomes, ensure compliance, and responsibly integrate AI.

I am an experienced educator and curriculum quality assurance specialist with deep expertise in instructional design, assessment alignment, and academic editing. I bring a systems-level approach to reviewing online courses for accuracy, compliance, and learner engagement.

I have a strong background across K–12 and higher education and maintain advanced skills in structured literacy, APA 7th edition, and evidence-based pedagogy. I design and implement individualized instruction for diverse learners, including students with learning disabilities.

In my curriculum review work I produce detailed feedback, contribute to QA rubrics and checklists, and collaborate with instructional designers and faculty to close alignment gaps and improve outcomes. I integrate educational technology and AI-supported tools responsibly, emphasizing human-in-the-loop review and ethical use.

I am remote-ready and experienced in scalable, detail-intensive roles that demand regulatory compliance, accessibility, and measurable learner impact. I seek opportunities to apply my curriculum QA, instructional design, and editing strengths to improve online learning experiences.
