For as long as I can remember, learning has always been something that I needed to experience, either physically or emotionally for the information to stick. It needed to be engaging and relevant but often times it was not — teaching me early on that instruction was not always inclusive of different learning styles and rarely took its audience into consideration. But in this role, I have the ability to ensure the learner is always put first.

Before my start in instructional design, I worked in public relations — connecting my clients to their target audience through effective storytelling. I also worked in marketing — raising funds through engaging and creative direct-mail fundraising packages as well as coding emails and building donation pages to help my nonprofit clients advance social change.

In this role, I'm able to fuse together my many skillsets to create engaging learning experiences that help companies see measurable improvements in metrics that matter.
