With 10+ years of experience designing learner-centered training for high-stakes, complex subject matter, I focus on building impactful learning for the corporate sector. My approach combines clear communication, scenario-based instructional design, and strategic use of technology — from Articulate 360 and Adobe Captivate to Synthesia AI voiceover and AI-assisted prototyping — to create content that aligns with real-world challenges and business goals.
In this portfolio, you'll find examples of:
🧭 Curriculum designed for adaptability across audiences, contexts, and delivery formats.
🎯 Instructional content that bridges pedagogy and performance rooted in learning theory, built for results.
🌍 Learning experiences informed by global perspective and shaped by cross-cultural teaching and classroom-tested pragmatism.
📷 Photography, PhotoShop, and visual design skills that support my data-informed L&D work through compelling visuals.
🔬 Data-informed L&D initiatives with every phase rooted in purposeful analysis of feedback, assessment data, and learner impact.
Interactive Learning Modules & Lessons
Freeman Industries Training Module (Adobe Captivate)
A scenario-based training module built with Adobe Captivate, focused on proper PPE use and industrial safety compliance. Includes branching navigation, custom visuals, and AI-generated voiceover (Synthesia).
ADDIE: From Problem to Proof (Vyond and Claude)
A 90-second overview of the ADDIE model, scripted and edited with Claude's help, produced in Vyond. Captioned for accessibility, and built alongside a web-based prototype of the same script as a working comparison of when to use either a produced video or a more interactive approach.

Learning Support Materials: Job Aids & Handouts
Using MagicSchool AI Thoughtfully: A Job Aid for Educators
Tools: Google Docs, Canva
This quick-reference guide was developed to help educators use MagicSchool AI more intentionally as a lesson-planning and productivity tool. YouTube videos are often used in lessons and having quick questions to use for in class response is a smart move for teachers. This tool helps them do just that.

Selected Work Samples: Data, Research, Writing & Code
Research Report: Cultural Representation in Social Studies Curriculum
Tools: React, TypeScript, OpenAI API, TailwindCSS, Vite, Bun, Lucide, ShadCN UI
This project began as a graduate capstone in curriculum studies, exploring the barriers U.S. social studies teachers face when accessing and implementing non-Western content, especially in AP and IB courses. As a response to the findings, I prototyped an AI-powered lesson curator to help educators discover aligned resources more easily.
The study used Qualtrics XM for data collection and Excel for analysis, and can be viewed by clicking the image of the map or the button.

Visual Design & Photography
Photography in Taiwan
Tools: Nikon cameras and lenses, Adobe Lightroom, Adobe PhotoShop, WordPress.org
While living and teaching in Taiwan, I developed a deep interest in photography and photo processing. I ran a self-hosted WordPress.org blog (now archived on WordPress.com) where I shared my work and reflections.
This experience helped me grow not just technically by learning camera mechanics and editing workflows but also narratively, as I learned to document cultural, political, and social moments through visual storytelling.
