Designing Meaningful Learning Informed by Data and Theory
Instructional Designer | Analyst | Educator
I focus on understanding and creating thoughtful learning experiences that are grounded in research and built for impact. My work sits at the intersection of instructional design, online learning, and data, with a particular interest in how designers can use evidence, theory, professional judgment, and emerging technologies to make better decisions about learning experiences. I care deeply about helping learners develop curiosity and confidence, and I hope every learning environment I help create contributes to a lasting love of learning.

Designing with Purpose, Centered on Learners
I'm a PhD student in Instructional Design and Technology with a background in data analysis, online instruction, and student support. I draw on learning theory and research to design learning experiences that are effective, approachable, and thoughtfully planned, from course structure to assessment to interaction.
I've worked with students, faculty, academic teams, and institutional leaders to improve learning experiences through instruction, course design, analytics, and collaborative problem-solving. Whatever the project, my aim is to make learning clearer, more engaging, and more meaningful for the people it serves.
When I'm not working or schooling, you can usually find me traveling, trying new foods, or surrounded by books—collecting them, reading them, and always looking for the next one to add to my shelf.
