What propels me when I wake up each morning? Creating world-class learning experiences! Figuring out what makes learners tick, what motivates them, what they need to accomplish, how training could solve their problem, what strategies will best get them there, and what evidence will tell them they've succeeded—these are what drive me. I'm a "moment maker" who intentionally crafts moments of insight and connection for learners. Through good instructional design, effective training media, and the right learning technologies, I make it easy for people to learn their job, upskill, apply knowledge, and do their best work. I'm a skilled training, graphics, and technology professional seeking to design and deliver engaging educational experiences and effective job support tools that increase knowledge, develop skills, enhance job performance, align with organizational goals, improve the client experience, and achieve business outcomes. I love my elearning authoring tools and media creation apps—and I'm quick at mastering new ones. I have expertise in Articulate Storyline, Adobe Connect, Adobe Captivate, Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere, After Effects), Lectora, Camtasia, and Powerpoint/Microsoft Office.First and foremost, I truly care about people and I'm easy to do business with. My forte is being genuinely "real" no matter what I do, bringing my best self to the workplace each day, designing every project with passion (colleagues call it "upping the Wattage"), and delivering outcomes that create lasting impacts and positive differences for learners, clients, and coworkers. My formula for success is "starting with the end in mind," innovative design thinking, creative collaboration, continuous improvement approach, and a growth mindset. I live for those "Ah-ha" moments when training helps connect the dots and learners feel empowered by their newly-discovered capabilities and successes.
