Hello

My journey in learning and development began while serving youth in the juvenile justice system, where I witnessed firsthand the transformative power of education. That experience shaped my passion for creating accessible, engaging, and evidence-based learning experiences that empower individuals to develop new skills and reach their potential.

​

With more than ten years of experience spanning instructional design, learning experience design, curriculum development, and educational leadership, I specialize in transforming complex information into engaging, performance-focused learning solutions. My professional background bridges corporate learning environments, education, and nonprofit program development, allowing me to approach instructional challenges with creativity, research, and strategic thinking.

​

As a Learning Experience Designer at Developmental Dimensions International (DDI), I designed and developed corporate eLearning experiences, collaborated with subject matter experts and cross-functional teams, and leveraged learning analytics to improve training effectiveness. My work focused on aligning learning objectives, digital content, and assessments with organizational goals to create meaningful learning experiences for adult learners.

​

Beyond corporate learning, I am the Founder and CEO of Youth of PROMISE, where I lead the design and development of educational programs, digital resources, instructional materials, and learning initiatives. Through strategic partnerships, needs assessments, and data-informed evaluation, I have developed learning solutions that support skill development and measurable outcomes.

​

Currently, I am a Ph.D. candidate in General Psychology with an emphasis on Integrated Learning and Technology, with a background in educational leadership. I integrate research-based instructional strategies, adult learning principles, learning technologies, and performance data to design solutions that address real-world learning and business challenges.

​

My instructional design portfolio showcases my approach to eLearning development, interactive learning experiences, scenario-based learning, leadership development, and performance-support design. From initial needs analysis to learning evaluation, I am passionate about creating thoughtful, accessible, and results-driven learning experiences that connect learner success with organizational performance.
 

My design philosophy is simple: Meaningful learning should do more than deliver information; it should build confidence, strengthen skills, and inspire action.
