L&D Values

Discover what matters most to me as a learning design professional.

Learner-centric experiences

Business is a human endeavor, so learning should be flexible, discoverable, and authentic. I always perform Needs and Task Analyses by getting to know the learner and by collaborating with SMEs closely. In the end, it's all about serving the learner and helping them grow.


The joy of learning

Your employees and clients shouldn't get a finger cramp from clicking "Next." Learning experiences should immerse people in authentic, relevant, and enjoyable eLearning. My career began in education, where I strove to spark the joy of learning in others. To me, learning is more than a source of business ROI. It's a positive force for change.


Clarity and professionalism

I have experience consulting enterprise-level clients on learning initiatives and developing eLearning for employees. No matter who I work with, I lead with clarity and professionalism. I am an active listener, proactive project manager, and responsive learning designer. I err on the side of over-communicating to make sure all parties meet their deliverables. Most importantly, I sprinkle compassion and honesty over it all.
