My unique and hybrid skill set, forged from a blend of rigorous education, diverse experiences, and a lifelong pursuit of knowledge, allows me to approach challenges with a perspective few others possess.
When asked what I do, the simplest answer is: I solve complex problems. My mind is naturally wired for it – honed by years of brain teasers, mysteries, and a drive to fix and improve.
Wearing multiple hats – as a researcher, technical writer, trainer, project manager, data analyst, and instructional designer – I bring a versatile and adaptable approach to every endeavor. My decade of success in high-profile, cradle-to-grave corporate projects, including the implementation of three enterprise-wide learning management systems and the establishment of several national training centers, speaks to my ability to deliver significant impact.
My longevity and success stem from a commitment to continuous learning and adaptation, coupled with an unwavering dedication to excellence. I hold myself to an exceptionally high standard, ensuring that anything bearing my name reflects my absolute best effort.
Driven by a deep passion for empowering people through knowledge and safety, I excel at collaborating effectively across all organizational and educational levels, particularly within challenging environments and work cultures.
