Dedicated, innovative, enthusiastic professional with a passion for creating curriculum and editing content for various remote business leaders; an insatiable appetite for learning; a curiosity that won’t quit; a love for helping others; a knack for fitting together the puzzle pieces of e-Learning modalities to create engaging learning experiences.

I am making the transition to working as an instructional designer and look forward to the opportunities and challenges ahead.
