Learning isn’t just about presenting information; it’s about helping people gain the confidence to do something they couldn’t do before.
Throughout my career, I’ve designed learning experiences for software users, dealership employees, hobbyists, and online audiences. Whether the solution is a structured learning academy, a step-by-step guide, a YouTube tutorial, or hands-on training, my goal is always the same: reduce confusion, remove friction, and help people succeed.

Featured Projects
Redesigning AutoAlert’s Enterprise Software Training Program
I redesigned a learning academy experience to make product training more accessible, scalable, and user-focused. By restructuring content, creating role-based learning paths, and developing self-service resources, I helped users find the information they needed faster while improving onboarding and long-term product adoption.
Building the Simple Software Tutorials Learning Platform
Designed and maintained a self-service software learning platform consisting of instructional videos, supporting documentation, downloadable resources, and searchable written content to help users learn Microsoft Office tools independently.
Designing a Beginner-Friendly Sewing Learning Experience
SewFunsies began as a personal project to make Barbie clothing for my niece and evolved into a resource designed to make doll sewing more approachable. By organizing patterns, adding supplemental instructions, and creating beginner-friendly resources, I helped make the learning process easier for new makers.
Supporting Projects
Making HTML, CSS & JavaScript Easier to Learn
This personal reference guide transforms HTML, CSS, and JavaScript documentation into a practical learning resource organized around real-world tasks instead of technical jargon. It demonstrates my approach to technical communication by making complex information easier to understand, navigate, and apply.
How to Create Mailing Labels in Word From an Excel List
This example is about analyzing where users get stuck, breaking a confusing multi-application workflow into manageable steps, and designing instruction for people with no prior knowledge. It also demonstrates a concrete learning outcome beyond YouTube metrics: someone learned a skill well enough to pass a hiring assessment and secure a job.
How to Create an Order Form With Drop-Down Menus in Excel
This concept originated from a real-world business solution I designed and demonstrates how I solved a business problem first, then taught others how to solve similar problems. I have a consistent track record of understanding problems, designing practical solutions, and helping others adopt them.
How to Auto-Populate Fields in Excel Using a Drop-Down and VLookup
This example demonstrates how I listened to a learner’s need, identified the knowledge gap (combining Data Validation with VLOOKUP in a practical way), and designed a solution around a real-world task, rather than teaching features in isolation. As a result, this became my most viewed video.
