Learning Design

Built on Teaching.
Backed by Strategy.
Accelerated by AI.

I design learning systems that are measurable from the beginning. My work combines instructional design, AI workflow automation, human performance analysis, and evaluation strategy to help organizations move beyond content production and toward evidence-based capability building.
My background spans sales enablement, customer education, technical training, and instructional design. I have trained employees, supported onboarding, built job aids, developed learning materials, facilitated instructor-led training, and translated complex systems into clear, usable steps. Today, I work as a Training Developer on a statewide Microsoft Dynamics 365 implementation, creating the documentation, learning assets, and support materials that help office staff and frontline users perform critical tasks with confidence.
What connects all of my work is a simple idea: training is only valuable when it transfers to performance.
That means I do not design learning just to check a box. I design for the moment when someone is back on the job, facing the real task, trying to remember what to do next. Whether I am building a job aid, designing an eLearning module, facilitating a live session, or developing an AI-powered support tool, my goal is to close the gap between “I completed the training” and “I can actually do the work.”
My graduate work in Learning Design and Technology strengthened that approach with proven frameworks like ADDIE, SAM, Gagné’s Nine Events, Kirkpatrick’s Model of Evaluation, Human Performance Technology, and learning transfer models. But my edge comes from combining those frameworks with practical experience: sales conversations, classroom instruction, software training, stakeholder communication, and the messy reality of helping people adopt new tools and new ways of working. Here I built a data-first agentic workflow to measure the needed performance gaps before any training materials are built: CoBuild: An Agentic Knowledge Preservation System Designed to Capture Expertise and Transform Tribal Knowledge into Performance Support.
On the AI front, I do not just talk about the future of learning — I build with it. Every. Single. Day. I use AI to accelerate analysis, design, content development, coaching, documentation, and knowledge support. Design is my passion, and I have explored AI-enhanced microlearning, custom GPTs, performance support tools, and custom built app-based learning experiences designed to make expertise more accessible in the flow of work and daily life. My focus is not to replace human judgment but to help organizations and individuals to use AI responsibly and make learning more useful, scalable, and more connected to personal goals or business results.
The thread across all of my work: I help organizations turn complexity into capability. I build learning that people can use. I design systems that support performance. And I help teams move from information overload to confident action.
