About
I build technical learning experiences for adult learners, drawing on work with LearningMate, Udacity, Springboard, Chegg Skills, Masterschool, and OpenClassrooms. For more than eight years, I’ve helped learners move from zero experience to professional-portfolio-ready across web development programs.
At LearningMate, I design and review Full Stack Web Development learning content for Chegg Skills, including storyboards, assessments, AI-driven activities, video walkthroughs, and Articulate Rise 360 modules. I bring software-development rigor to instructional design, using custom JavaScript when off-the-shelf tools need animated interactions, visual effects, embedded activities, AI-generated narration, or xAPI analytics.
I’ve mentored thousands of technical learners through JavaScript, Python, React, Node, Express, SQL, Ruby, Rails, and PostgreSQL curricula. I create targeted tutorials, code walkthroughs, and project feedback that make complex programming concepts practical and accessible.
I also bring hands-on frontend development experience from Boeing, NetMotion Software, Freeride Entertainment, and agency work, where I built WordPress solutions, interactive ads, and web experiences. I’m completing an M.S. in Learning Design & Technology at UMGC and am focused on customer education, developer enablement, and eLearning development that actually works.
