Currently, I'm completing my M.Ed. in Instructional Design and Technology at American College of Education, building on eight years of K-12 teaching experience and over a decade running my own academic coaching business, Student Futures, where I authored workbooks and courses for teens. My focus is on curriculum development and course design for adult learners, with hands-on experience turning a workbook into a full course in LearnPress. I bring creativity and close attention to detail to the work — translating something complicated into a clear, structured path is what I enjoy most about instructional design. What drives me is the moment a concept finally clicks for a learner; that's what pulled me from the classroom into coaching, and now into formal course design, and it's what I'm building this portfolio around as I finish my degree.
