Designing and developing creative learning experiences that are interactive and 'learner-centered' for over 18 years 

Looking for challenges that will allow me to grow, teach me new skills, and help me sharpen my abilities in the workplace.

About Me

I am a CIPD-qualified, skilled, and driven Learning and Development professional with over 18 years of experience. I have a proven track record in managing and delivering Learning & Development initiatives and business projects

My commitment to self-development is demonstrated through completing MBTI and Insights, participation in the Collaborations Company’s Challenge 24 programme, and continuous engagement with emerging learning trends, instructional design techniques, and eLearning development. I am also an active contributor to eLearning forums.

With a strategic focus, I bring extensive experience in learning trends, instructional design, and delivering innovative Learning and Development solutions and technologies.

My career began with developing and delivering instructor-led workshops and courses for the leisure industry. Over the past decade, I transitioned into the digital learning space, initially project managing the shift from traditional learning methods to online learning for an FTSE 250 company. Currently, I continue to shape and lead the online learning culture for the brand, collaborating closely with colleagues to ensure a blended learning approach is effectively implemented.
