I love learning. It spurs me to continuously grow. And as an instructional designer I find deep purpose in developing learning experiences that produce growth in others. I innately absorb, integrate and catalog new information and easily determine essential content for learners - categorizing, chunking and sequencing - to accomplish learning objectives that are directly aligned to desired behavioral outcomes and business goals. Analytical by nature, my extensive background in education has honed my skills in needs analysis and evaluation.
By connecting carefully crafted learning objectives and assessments to engaging content, my learning solutions gain power to generate behavior changes that meet business goals. Not only do I link ideas and experiences, but I build bridges among people. I foster collaborative relationships as an attentive listener, encouraging others and bringing calm amidst changes or challenges. I communicate clearly and professionally, yet with warmth and empathy.Â
Diligent and precise, my goal is to always exceed expectations. I am structured yet adaptable, and use these skills as an instructional designer to collaborate and implement feedback to deliver the most effective learning solutions. Utilizing my technical skills and project management experience, I thrive in settings where I can efficiently accomplish tasks.
Outside of instructional design, you can find me spending time with my family - we love adventuring and experiencing life together. I love the outdoors and frequently hike, kayak and camp. I enjoy reading and expressing my creativity through baking and crafting.
