Welcome
When generating critical thinking through active learning, collaboration, and integrations, success means learners tackle discrete instructional goals with enough creativity left to transfer lessons to the emergent developments of our time.
​
I bring years of experience in higher education, deep background in communications and analytics, and research-based pedagogy to make this happen.

Expertise
Project Management
Years of experience overseeing competitive graduate programs equips me with the ability to work nimbly among diverse stakeholders, often on multiple projects at once.
Learning Platforms​
Experience with LMS and other instructional platforms as a student, instructor, and as an administrator supports my ability to troubleshoot with others.
Documentation​
Job aids and instructions are equal parts art and science. I lean on editing and design experience gained in the news industry and honed in academia, often going beyond written instruction.
Interactivities
Promoting interaction is key for engaging learners and improving outcomes in online and in-person environments.
Communications
Instructional or informal, online or in person; academic events or community outreach; in individual or in group sessions, it's all about meeting constituents where they are to gain engagement and meet desired objectives.
