@shruthiraveendran
Instructional designer specializing in AI-enhanced, scalable adult learning.
What I'm looking for
I am an instructional designer with 10+ years building high-impact learning systems for adult professionals across exam prep, healthcare communication, and soft skills. I design end-to-end curricula, scenario-based simulations, and AI-powered learning tools, and I have field-tested proprietary systems with documented 80–90% success rates.
My recent work focuses on enterprise L&D and scalable remote experiences, including voice-first AI simulators and RAG-grounded learning tools. I combine evidence-based pedagogy, assessment design, and prompt engineering to produce measurable learner outcomes and continuous improvement.
