I build learning systems that solve problems people actually have.

Problem

Our online courses used audio heavily, but learners could hit play and walk away. That created a poor learning experience and a compliance problem.

Approach

I built a custom Adapt plugin that connects the audio to the content on screen. As the audio progresses, the page moves with it and pauses when the learner needs to complete an interaction. The goal was simple: make the audio part of the learning experience instead of something learners could just leave running in the background.

Impact

A more interactive experience that keeps learners engaged while meeting the requirements of a regulated online course.

Problem

Managing 30+ courses meant tracking archive dates, rollover schedules, version changes, learner survey sentiment, traffic, and video engagement across six separate systems by hand. Nothing lived in one place, and it was easy for something small — an overdue archive date, a course that needed a version bump — to slip through until it became a bigger problem.

Approach

Designed and built a full-stack operations dashboard from scratch that pulls live data from Google Analytics, Google Sheets, Monday.com, Vimeo, and Outlook calendars into one view. I worked with Claude as a development partner to move from concept to production faster, while I directed the architecture, data model, and what the dashboard actually needed to surface. Each integration follows the same pattern (fetch, normalize, cache) so adding a new data source doesn't mean reinventing anything. The home view goes a step further than just displaying that data: it recombines survey results, analytics, and Monday activity into derived insights by flagging what needs attention, scoring comment sentiment, and surfacing trend deltas so the dashboard interprets the data instead of just reporting it. It's deployed on Render with a Google Cloud-backed pipeline, so it runs on its own and stays current without manual upkeep.

Impact

• One dashboard instead of six open tabs to check the status of any course
• Overdue tasks and compliance-related deadlines get caught before they become a fire drill
• Gives leadership visibility into course health, traffic, and learner sentiment without needing a status update from me

Problem

Our learners are often studying for a licensing exam while working full time. Making someone sit through hours of content they already understand isn't a great use of their time.

Approach

I designed an assessment-driven pathway that uses what a learner already knows to determine where they need to spend their time. If they demonstrate proficiency in a topic, that content becomes optional. If they don't, it's required.

Impact

• Learners spend time on what they actually need
• Less content overload, more personalized learning experience

Problem

State regulators require us to document how long learners spend in a course. Our LMS wasn't built to handle the level of tracking we needed.

Approach

I designed a custom timing and completion system that tracks time at the section level and prevents completion until the required thresholds are met. I also made the information visible to learners, so they can see where they stand instead of having to guess why something isn't complete.

Impact

• Compliance requirements met with precision across 30+ courses
• 20,000+ learners can see their own progress — support tickets dropped

Problem

Self-paced learning gives learners flexibility, but it can also make it easy to get stuck or fall behind without anyone noticing.

Approach

I designed a blended learning model that combines online course modules with scheduled Zoom sessions, instructor check-ins, and one-on-one support. The goal was to keep the flexibility of online learning while giving learners more opportunities to connect with an instructor when they need it.

Impact

• Learners stay on track instead of stalling out mid-program
• Instructor support added without breaking the scalability of async delivery
