Please take a look at some of my design solutions for various projects.
To compliment and enhance our in-person curriculum for a client, I collaborated remotely with subject matter experts (SMEs) to design and develop four online modules on Smart and Resilient Communities. By capturing expert insights via Zoom, we integrated diverse international viewpoints, overcoming pandemic limitations, time zone challenges, and budget constraints. I was able to deliver a completed module every 3 months by building the module in Storyline with voice-over narration, then exporting to SCORM and embedding it in the program portal in Canvas. The participants appreciated the engaging content and clear global perspectives.

We wanted learners to be able to complete an activity, reflect on what they learned, and then be able to save their entries either as a PDF or to print. This is the solution we devised.
This excerpt features a sample screen showing the initial arrangement of the SME's "building blocks." It's followed by the interactive space where learners could reorder these elements for their projects.
This 2-page sample comes from a 16-page raw transcript (generated from the SME's Zoom recording). My process involved meticulously editing and collaborating with the SME to creatively transform this source material into the clear, well-organized voice-over, visualizations, and interactives showcased in the above excerpt – one that effectively supports the intended learning outcomes and facilitates learning for the end user.
This course was one of five courses developed for a client - a collaborative effort between W.P. Carey School of Business and Thunderbird School of Management. We had to update and redesign ten-year old courses over a 11-month period before the launch. During the project timeline, I took my instructional design classes at the University of Arizona. I chose to Prototype the design and development of one module of one course for my class project.

This is the needs assessment I did for this project. I used survey results from the last two cohorts, and interviews with the faculty who taught these cohorts.
These are the revised program, course, and module learning objectives; a sample of aligned assessments the SME and I composed; and one of the grading rubrics that I developed for the module assignments.
This was the first in a set of 15 courses developed for a client in India. Our team of 3 instructional designers, with the part-time aid of 2 design team members and 1 student worker, collaborated with twelve different content experts over the period of 15 months to design and develop the 15-course program.

In the absence of established formatting standards, I developed a foundational Style Guide and accompanying Word and Excel templates for course handouts. This proactive step ensured consistency in design and structure throughout the course development process. Click below to see a refined version of the Style Guide we implemented, ensuring brand alignment and a cohesive learner experience.
Leveraging AI tools, I rapidly identified potential target industries and roles for our e-learning program. This initial analysis informed the creation of four distinct user personas. Collaborating closely with the lead content expert and the client director, I refined these personas to align with their deep understanding of the client and target audience. The resulting document, sampled below, became a key resource for the team as they designed the content and assessments for the program.
As part of the project's agile development process, I took the lead in articulating and organizing key project requirements into a clear and actionable list of Project Stories to import into Monday.com. This preparation enabled us to choose relevant stories for each 2-week sprint, leading to more focused and productive team discussions during our planning sessions. Click below to see a PDF of the Fall stories and their organization. The first page is an overview; scan through the following pages for an enlargement of each of the various sections.
I believe assessments should do more than test knowledge. They should confirm genuine understanding, the ability to apply learning in real-world scenarios, and provide constructive feedback that deepens learning. Explore examples of my assessment design below.
These excerpts demonstrate my design approach: just-in-time, relevant information, organized for easy digestion and an optimal learning experience.
The original script for this course included an exhaustive and dry exploration of US law. Besides cutting many parts that would be irrelevant for the audience, I organized the information into 4 relevant categories and highlighted information that the audience would most likely need.

This course section provided a huge amount of information that would be overwhelming as text or a narration. I broke it into parts - a video followed by a menu that learners could use to explore the information at their own speed.
Presented with lists of web resources for this course, I designed a way for learners to search the materials and resources by region or by country.
For copyright purposes, this is a reduced version of the published course.
