Michelle Rich Portfolio

About Me

I am Michelle Rich and I am an experienced instructional designer with a passion for learning effectiveness. I champion smart learning solutions that focus on essential competencies and yield return on investment. I advocate for choice and accessibility to maximize learning for all.

I received a master's degree from Utah State University's Instructional Technology and Learning Sciences program. Additionally, I have a bachelor's degree in Accounting and an associates degree in Early Childhood Development.

I have experience in all aspects of ADDIE (analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation) and specialize in multimedia learning solutions, including eLearning, video, and hybrid solutions.

My experience includes roles as Instructional Design Consultant for American Heritage School Worldwide, Senior Instructional Designer for Pacific Gas & Electric Company,  Learning and Documentation Consultant for Chevron Corporation and Precision Systems Science USA, Inc., and Team Leader/Senior Training Specialist for Chevron USA.

I am experienced in design, development, technical writing, leadership, and project management. I am a team player, yet can also work effectively independently.

In addition to working in corporate training and K-12 curriculum development, I have also taught preschool and piano. I have volunteered in several capacities, including crisis hotline worker and tutor. I enjoy playing the piano, reading, traveling, writing, and learning.
