For me, getting things done entails navigating challenging terrain to find strong solutions; this involves connecting people and concepts. Each problem is unique and requires consideration of stakeholder and organizational impact. Being genuine has been a key value for me since childhood. Whether it be collaborating on projects or communicating in different settings, I try to be as transparent as possible. I also value speed in communication, completing projects, and helping others—while delivering high quality. I also highly value maintaining balance and well-being to be your best self. Throughout my career, I have developed engaging and interactive content and learning experiences—whether it be curating OER resources, or creating digital courses, competencies, textbooks, exams and eBooks. Equally comfortable in traditional publishing, the educational technology start-up space, and education institutions, I have a wealth of experience with digital content and projects, always with an eye toward process improvement, finding solutions, listening to customers, continuously learning, and building authentic relationships. Specialties include: Working cross-functionally at large publishing companies, ed tech start-ups, and education institutions; digital content development, content curation and instructional design; content strategy; product development and project management; process improvement; stakeholder relationship building; managing teams; budget, schedule, quality and vendor management; editing and writing; mentoring and leadershipIf you have a project or idea to discuss—or would just like to chat about wellness, running, or something else—please reach out!
