Instructional design and e-learning development allow me to use my unique blend of instructional and technical knowledge to benefit any business looking to improve employee performance through training modules. I design interactive, full-length, scenario-based trainings using Articulate Rise and Storyline. I can also create shorter training modules and job aids using Canva and PowerPoint to help meet your business needs.

After completing my bachelor's degree, I spent most of the next two decades in education. During that time, I earned a master's degree in educational technology and looked for opportunities to include tech into my lessons whenever possible.  While looking for another way to put my degree to use, I discovered the field of instructional design and enrolled in the Applied Instructional Design Academy to learn the skills specific to the field. My years of experience in education combined with my technical knowledge allowed me to learn the instructional design trade skills quickly and transition out of education. 

Outside of work, I am a husband and father first and foremost. I have been married to my lovely wife for nearly 20 years and we have 3 wonderful children. I have coached high school baseball since 2006 and junior high baseball since 2017. 

I enjoy spending time outdoors. You can find me fishing, hiking, or hunting depending on the season. We also enjoy taking road trips as a family. We have driven from our home in Illinois to Arizona, Texas, Idaho, Nebraska, and Florida, stopping in many states along the way. I'm excited to see the next place life leads my family.
