Relentlessly curious and fueled by a lifetime of multicultural insight, I am a bilingual Learning and Development Professional dedicated to fostering environments that reward forward-thinking and strategic creativity.With over 7 years at Amazon, I’ve launched new learning programs, trained over 3500 associates, and implemented Learning Management Systems (LMS). I designed an onboarding process and mentored facilitators, reducing training times by 20%, improving new hires' experiences, and contributing to a record-setting launch season. Collaborating with operations leaders, I optimized the staging floor plan, saving over $350,000 and boosting operational efficiency.Fluent in English and Spanish, with a diverse international, academic, and professional background, I am an engaging leader, facilitator, and mentor who loves sharing knowledge and fostering talent. My unique perspective challenges conventional wisdom and helps me inspire a wide range of learners. I thrive in environments that encourage intellectual curiosity and collaboration.My inquisitive thinking, strategic problem-solving, instructional design, and multimedia communication skills enable me to distill complex problems into actionable solutions by addressing root causes rather than symptoms. For example, reducing the number of employee safety incidents by creating a process to audit and isolate defects in the equipment leading to those incidents, rather than coaching and retraining employees after an incident. I aim to create effective, long-term solutions that are scalable, repeatable, and well-documented for the benefit of my peers and successors.I feed my voracious curiosity through partner dancing, avid reading, exploring new technologies, and listening to diverse podcasts. Currently, I’m expanding my expertise in instructional design and adult learning theory while pursuing APTD certification. I'm eager to connect with professionals passionate about learning and development and explore opportunities to leverage my skills in a strategic and leadership-focused capacity.
