Résumé & Reel
Great learning experiences do more than deliver information—they engage, inspire, and encourage people to apply what they've learned.
With a background in graphic design, UX/UI, and instructional design, I bring together visual storytelling, learner-centered strategies, and interactive technologies to create meaningful learning experiences.
This one-minute reel offers a glimpse into my work, featuring interactive eLearning, scenario-based learning, gamification, microlearning, instructional video, and immersive experiences. Each project reflects my approach to transforming instructional challenges into engaging, purposeful learning solutions.

Architects Design Group (September 2014 — December 2017)
As a Web and Graphic Designer, I successfully managed & designed all the creative department’s materials including proposal development, marketing initiatives, email / social media campaigns, and worked collaboratively with the marketing team. I also mentored junior staff on color correction, software solutions, best printing practices, and documentation creation.
Some of the highlights of my work, have included acting as a project manager / designer in partnership with an external developer to complete a redesign of the ADG website. With the completion of this new redesign, we saw an increase of mobile device visitors to our site. I also created a brand audit, which lead to the development of a branding and style guide - the first ever in their 30+ year history. The branding and style guide provides information and tools to enhance credibility and consistency.
