MY EXPERTISE
I'm an engaging instructional designer, eLearning developer, and learning experience designer with over 5 years of experience designing innovative training solutions for diverse audiences. I'm highly skilled in eLearning implementation, educational technology, differentiated instruction, and curriculum development.
HOW I DO IT
I use a variety of instructional design models such as ADDIE, Bloom's Taxonomy, Action Mapping, and the Backwards Design. In addition, I also create clear and measurable objectives, develop assessments, write scripts, and create storyboards. Along with those skill sets, I utilize my expertise in graphic design, branding, and photography to craft learning solutions for you and your organization based on your goals and audience while collaborating with subject matter experts (SMEs) for accurate and quality course content.
SOFTWARE I USE
I have a special focus on creating and developing effective eLearning with tools including Articulate Rise 360, Storyline and other programs such as Audacity, Photoshop, InDesign, and Canva.
WHY I LOVE IT
This field combines many of my passions while utilizing my strengths. I'm a creative person who loves empowering others through learning. I love using the latest technology to build engaging and memorable learning experiences.
