About me

I’m a learning experience designer who is interested in designing for change and social impact for all ages. For several years, I have wanted to pursue a career in Instructional Design. I am particularly drawn to the field's flexibility and variety, which challenges me as a designer to think outside the box to find creative strategies that deliver the best results. So here I’m, doing what I have always dreamed to be a designer, educator, and technologist. I am a strong believer that digital learning at any age should be enjoyable, useful, engaging, and accessible.

I just received a master degree in Digital Media Design for Learning at New York University with Games for Learning Concentration. I also earned a master degree in Visual Communication Design from Rochester Institute of Technology. In addition, I obtained a bachelor degree in childhood study in 2005, and have worked with children. So as a result, one of my interests is designing for children, and possibly working in the children's educational entertainment business. My main goal is to maintain a solid growing practice in the educational digital media field.
