Profile

Diversity. Adaptability. Comprehension. 

I am a project manager at my core but I also have experience in design, production and writing as well as some instructional design. I possess a solid background in training materials and my understanding of structure requirements are valuable in print and web content development. My diverse background is an asset to those who are seeking a well-versed individual.

Project Management

Recently I lead a creative team in developing a variety of training products for Sears associates. This role’s duties included planning and managing timelines, defining learning objectives and ensuring training goals were met, and coaching, team building and leading four direct reports.
