L&D Leader, Author, and Solutions Architect

Hi, thanks for dropping by!

Summary: What I Do

The best way to describe what I do is:

I Turn needs into plans, plans into designs, and designs into training.

That is, I create turn-key training solutions for organizational training.

My Background

I love helping people learn. I received a Master’s Degree in Education from UCLA and went straight to K12 education. Combining my hand-drawn cartoons with learning strategies, I made cartoons to help students learn. My students loved them and encouraged me to start a business with them.

Eventually one thing led to another, I became a corporate L&D/Training professional. You can find examples of my work below

All the Best~
