Stuff about me...
Me in 5 Sentences
Since I was a kid, I've liked clever use of media that connects with audiences in meaningful ways. For a long time I made content. Then I got those messages seen. But I have learned that my true love is creating learning experiences. I leverage my expertise in technology and learning design to create exciting learning experiences that produce measurable business impacts.
Background
My specific roles have varied and have included instructional design, strategy development, project management, account management and practical production. I co-founded a video production company in 2007 (Sixsem). I made eLearning resources for over 10,000 users. I lectured in Digital Media. And, currently I am a lead in shaping technology focused learning experiences at Indeed.

Stuff I hope to achieve...
I love to have an impact. I’m great at learning things. I love applying my knowledge to improve processes and usually that helps businesses and clients. Having the opportunity to learn and adapt those insights into helping real people achieve stuff, well, that would be cool! Integrity is important. As is transparency. These are both values I possess. I’d like to work for a place that shares the same beliefs. Somewhere that puts user experience at the top, therefore ensuring success all round. And, working somewhere that makes beautiful stuff, that would be awesome too.
