About

Nice to meet you!

What I Do

I design beautiful learning experiences that solve business problems while helping learners to feel valued and empowered. I design custom learning tailored to your specific needs, goals and audience. These designs are interactive and multimedia-based.

My background is in communications then, after earning my MS in Instructional Technology, I worked in corporate learning for AT&T and IBM. After seeing how often bad Project Management can wreck a client's timeline and budget I eventually decided to pursue a Project Management degree from George Washington University then my PMP certificate so I could lead projects, manage stakeholders and bring projects in on time.

After leaving the corporate world in 2010, I returned to learning as a freelance Instructional Designer and have been doing projects for large, medium and small organizations for the last 11 years.

What I'm Excited About

  • Creating micro learning for short learning bursts.

  • Creating elearning that mimics the environment in which the user will be working.

  • Animation that motivates the learner to stay engaged and attentive to the videos.

  • Interactions that are fun and meaningful

A Little Bit More

I live north of the city of Atlanta, on Lake Allatoona, with my husband Michael, son Joshua and daughter Danielle. I'm a left brained, analytical INTJ who also has a passion for art and design. I love interior decorating, creating abstract and folk art and hiking with my three mini Australian Shepherds in the North Georgia mountains.
