As an Instructional Designer and Curriculum Developer, I'm an innovative facilitator and e-learning strategist who masterfully creates engaging learning experiences, for learners at all levels. Inspiring through storytelling allows me to blend UX and best practices in andragogy, pedagogy, and instructional design. The result? Training and performance support tools for an exceptional learner-centered experience where the application of newly acquired skills leads to deep learning and career development for individuals and groups.I'm also a funding strategist and nonprofit consultant who helps organizations position themselves to receive grants and funding for quality programs. As a former educator, nonprofits with a focus on education and youth development are near to my heart. Creating Funding Strategies that save nonprofits time, effort and frustration is my superpower!I thrive at creating strategic roadmaps that outline the best grant opportunities for each project, finding innovative ways to develop funder relationships, and advising newer nonprofits to set them up for success.I’m an avid reader and lover of words, ideas, and the connections they foster. This helps me write compelling narratives that enhance grant applications.
