Get to Know Me

My photo_edited.png

I am an Instructional Designer and Content & Curriculum Specialist with extensive experience designing research-based learning experiences for both children and adult learners. My work bridges instructional design, curriculum development, and literacy expertise to create engaging, accessible, and goal-driven learning solutions.

With a professional foundation rooted in early childhood and elementary education, I bring a deep understanding of how learners develop, how instruction must be scaffolded, and how content should be structured for clarity and impact. Over the course of my career, I have designed hundreds of instructional resources, digital lessons, and learning modules aligned to evidence-based practices and instructional standards.

Today, my work focuses on instructional design for multiple audiences. This portfolio is organized to reflect that approach:

  • Business projects demonstrate learning design for adult learners, professional training, and performance-based outcomes.

  • Teachers projects highlight curriculum development, instructional planning, and standards-aligned design.

  • Kids projects showcase learner-facing digital experiences created to support engagement, accessibility, and skill development.

Across all projects, I apply instructional design frameworks such as ADDIE, Universal Design for Learning (UDL), and structured literacy principles to create meaningful learning experiences that are purposeful, measurable, and learner-centered.
