Nice to meet you! I’m an instructional designer based in Kansas City. I craft engaging, effective learning experiences that truly make a difference. My superpower? Breaking down complex topics into bite-sized insights that spark those "aha!" moments.
I’m meticulous with details, passionate about clean, thoughtful visual design, and always focused on creating a positive and intuitive learner experience. Every project I take on is geared toward real results—training that boosts performance and empowers learners to reach their full potential.
I have over 10 years of experience in designing and developing creative, highly impactful e-learning, instructor-led, and blended learning solutions that inspire real change.
When not designing innovative learning solutions, you'll (hopefully!) find me hiking, rewatching nostalgic 80's and 90's movies (a few of my faves are The Princess Bride, Jurassic Park, and The Karate Kid), working through my ever-growing pile of books, scouring antique stores for Mid Century Modern treasures, or wrangling my two dogs at the dog park.
