Building Learning Experiences that are Beautiful, Painless, and Effective
I've taught and trained thousands of people around the world both in-person and virtually. I know how to build effective elearning, whether it's making a dry topic engaging or breaking complicated learning objectives down to digestable pieces. From sitting down with stakeholders for a needs analysis, to building courses with advanced custom functionality, all the way to mining the LMS for post-implementation reporting, I've touched every part of the process and have a proven record of making learning experiences with a big impact.
Most of my recent work is not sharable due to it containing proprietary information, so I've built a few portfolio pieces to show off my skills. Over the last few years, I've developed an average of 20 to 25 courses annually, ranging in seat time from 15 minutes to an hour, as well as supporting around 30 additional courses via troubleshooting, minor edits, or error remediation. These courses had audiences that ranged from a few hundred to 30,000+ learners. There are also untold numbers of videos, job aids, infographics, and other miscellaneous pieces out there that I've built over the years. I can't show all of those to you, but hopefully these samples will give you an idea of the kind of learning experiences I'm capable of building.
This demo shows the Analysis module of a course on the ADDIE model. It was built in Storyline over an afternoon. Click the button on the final page to see a PDF of the storyboard I used to build this, as well as an outline for the full course.
Articulate recently had an eLearning Hero Challenge for building something using Rise's new code block feature. I decided to try out some vibe coding and made a quick interaction that is a clone of the New York Times Connections game. This was my first foray into vibe coding and I can't believe how quick and easy it was to build this.
So. Much. Potential.
UPDATE: I'm proud to say that this interaction was selected to be featured in the Articulate eLearning Heroes roundup for September 2025, as well as their weekly newsletter.
This is the type of course a company might deploy before giving their employees access to Generative AI tools. This is an example of one of the many courses I've built that have advanced functionality under the hood that's unnoticeable from the learner's perspective. The acknowledgement at the end is actually set up as a quiz with only one possible answer, so that not just the completion of the course can be tracked in the LMS, but also the fact that the learner specifically checked the box to agree to the attestation.
NOTE:
All of my test down materials are proprietary, so I'm in the process of rebuilding a sharable version. Check back soon.
For this project I was approached with a problem: the client wanted to reduce the training burden by giving their employees the opportunity to show what they had retained from their annual training. This was high-stakes compliance content, though, so testing out wasn't an option. They wanted a "test down" that would give a shortened version of the course to employees who passed a pretest.
I came up with this scalable template that is powerful enough to meet the client's need while being simple enough that even the most junior ID could build a course using it. This template is now the backbone of the client's compliance training program, and to this day it continues to save their employees untold hours of training time.
