Experience Matters
eLearning Specialist
Experienced in creating custom eLearning courses to provide your students an engaging and visual online learning experience using Adobe Captivate.
Instructional Design
Guidance on how to break down materials into digestible segments, analytics for student engagement and success, and various course delivery methods.
Software Simulations
Go beyond video based training for your users. I can show them each click to complete an action in your system, and then let them try it for themselves with gentle guidance during within the training module.
Voice Work
Native English speaker who grew up in Upstate NY but has lived in the South long enough to have some extra warmth in my voice. Audio work is captured and edited in Adobe Audition prior to import into training materials.
Design Elements
With a background in web design and photography, I bring a modern and clean aesthetic to training materials. Design elements draw on corporate branding for consistent marketing.
Quality Content
My English degree comes in handy for companies that need a helping hand preparing their content for prime-time consumption. I typically edit as I go or I can help you restructure reference material into cohesive content.
Sample Training Class
Often training courses are locked behind a pay wall or protected by an NDA. Therefore, I have put together this brief mock class as an example of my capabilities with Adobe Captivate. I have also broken this class down into lessons and set it up in Thinkific as a sample of viewing in an LMS.
