What I do

Three ways I can help your organization

Whether you're managing a major system rollout, building a learning culture, or closing an adoption gap. I bring strategy, creativity, and experience.

Design learning that performs

eLearning, ILT, job aids, and LMS-delivered curricula grounded in cognitive science, built for real-world adoption, not just completion rates.

Accelerate digital adoption

WalkMe Certified Builder (I & II). In-app guidance that meets users at the point of need, reducing support tickets and shortening time-to-proficiency.

Partner on change

Training without change management is noise. I've served as Change Champion through major organizational transformations, connecting learning strategy to business outcomes.

Ready to build learning that lasts?

Available for full-time roles, contract engagements, and consulting projects across healthcare, enterprise, and federal environments.

I've spent more than two decades helping organizations navigate complex system changes, designing training that actually changes behavior and building digital adoption programs that reduce friction at the point of need.

That work has taken me from the classroom to C-suite: from EMR go-live deployments at Emory Healthcare to federal agency programs at NIH, SSA, and HHS, to building a WalkMe adoption strategy at FinThrive. I've worn the hats of instructional designer, systems trainer, change champion, and curriculum architect.


My approach

Design from the learner's perspective first.

What do they actually need to do? What's getting in the way? What does "good" look like six months after go-live?

I apply evidence-based learning science, including Cognitive Load Theory, spaced retrieval, and worked examples, alongside ADDIE and Kirkpatrick's Four Levels to build programs that hold up under scrutiny.

I'm direct about documentation as a support deflection strategy. Good job aids, in-app guidance, and searchable knowledge bases reduce ticket volume. That's a business outcome, not just a training deliverable.

Systems training & go-live support

Specialized in enterprise software training: EHR, ERP, RCM, and healthcare IT. I've led and supported go-live events for large health systems and know how to keep training on track when timelines compress and stakeholders get nervous.

Digital adoption & WalkMe implementation

As a WalkMe Certified Builder (Levels I & II), I design in-application guidance that reduces friction at the point of need. Digital adoption done right shortens onboarding time, deflects support tickets, and gives organizations real data on where users struggle.

Change management support

Training is most effective when it's part of a change strategy, not a bolt-on at the end. I've served as Change Champion through major organizational transformations and can help connect the learning plan to the broader change effort.

Knowledge management & documentation

Effective documentation is a support deflection strategy. Well-structured job aids, searchable knowledge bases, and process guides reduce ticket volume and empower users to self-serve. I approach documentation as a learning asset, not an afterthought.
