ABOUT

I am a detail-oriented instructional designer, developer, and eLearning Quality Assurance (QA) expert specializing in designing and developing engaging eLearning. Many clients also ask me to test and improve their current online courses or update their old eLearning modules.

I most often work on:

  • Designing storyboards from scripts

  • Developing eLearning using Articulate Storyline 360 and Rise 360

  • Designing storyboards for animated multimedia videos

  • Designing slides in Google Slides, PowerPoint, or Keynote

  • Creating 2D animated videos and screencast tutorials

  • eLearning Quality Assurance

  • Editing and testing online courses and recommending improvements

I received an Educational Technology Master's degree and Online Teaching to Adult Learners graduate certificate from Boise State University. I successfully completed the "Applying the Quality Matters Rubric" program, which helps me evaluate the quality of online courses. I understand how adults learn and incorporate andragogy in course development. When designing eLearning, I follow multimedia principles that support learning. I also have knowledge of graphic design principles for learning. I am an expert in editing, proofreading, and evaluating online courses and documentation.
