This website showcases some of my work and experiences in the fields of instructional design, educational technology, multimedia design, project management, upskilling, and more.
I have 20+ years of professional experience in instructional design and technology (IDT), librarianship, management, and have also delivered instruction in multiple modalities. I have complementary backgrounds in library science and ID which enable me to offer a unique perspective on the theory and the application of learning design. I have a deep working knowledge of traditional learning management systems (LMSs) such as Blackboard, D2L / Brightspace, Canvas and Moodle and more specialized systems; my experiences with LMSs and related technology add a powerful dynamic and is especially valuable when training stakeholders.
I am fortunate to have an enriching professional life. I joined the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine as the inaugural director of curriculum in early 2024.
