Instructional Design

I specialize in instructional and curriculum design that blends creativity with strategy to support effective teaching and learning. From building interactive course shells and curriculum to designing faculty development resources and media at UCF’s Faculty Center, my work focuses on creating impactful, learner-centered experiences across modalities. Below, you’ll find examples of Quality Matters–certified courses I’ve designed, internationalization-focused curriculum, and the integration of Adobe creative tools within my teaching.
