About Me
Continuous Growth is the Cornerstone of My Life.
From the moment I could hold a book, I’ve had an insatiable thirst for knowledge. My mother instilled in me a love for reading at an early age, teaching me to view the world with wonder, compassion, and curiosity. This passion, combined with the influence of my mother and grandmother, has fueled my enjoyment of helping others.
​
My journey into creating high-impact, scalable learning experiences as an instructional designer and technical writer spans over 20 years. Although my career path wasn’t initially scripted (pun intended), it has undoubtedly become my destiny.
​
Continuous growth has been a cornerstone of my life, positively influencing not only my own development but also that of my clients, colleagues, family, community, and volunteer efforts. I believe in sharing the mental and physical growth I’ve experienced, fostering a collaborative and enriching environment for everyone I work with.
