About Me
“Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.”
― Benjamin Franklin

Who am I outside of Instructional Design?
Formerly a dedicated educator, I'm now embarking on a new adventure in the world of instructional design. My journey has been colored by my passions; from exploring far-off destinations as an adventurous traveler, to creating intricate cookie designs with the precision of an artist. My four-legged companion, Duke, keeps me grounded as a loving dog mom, reminding me of the importance of empathy and patience in every project I undertake.
When I'm not immersed in the world of learning experiences, you'll likely find me sipping an iced coffee, a habit that fuels my creativity and drive. As a die-hard Chicago sports fan, I understand the value of teamwork, collaboration, and determination, values that are seamlessly integrated into my design philosophy. I pride myself on being quick-witted, often infusing a touch of humor into my work. This, I believe, fosters an engaging and relatable learning environment.
