Working at the intersection of education, technology, and design
💼 What I do
I turn educational goals into meaningful learning experiences. I work from those goals to determine what learners need, translate content into an effective experience, and use technology to bring it to life.
💡 How I think
I've spent nearly a decade in higher education—as a faculty member, curriculum designer, and, honestly, a lifelong student. Along the way, I became fascinated by this question: How can I make this content more concise, engaging, and effective?
The Answer? Keep people at the center of the experience: Put context, understanding, and people first. Add learning theory and instructional design principles. Then use technology to build the right solution.
