Presentations and slide decks
Effective presentations do more than share information they help an audience understand ideas, see connections, and engage with a message. These projects demonstrate how I use visual design, storytelling, research, and instructional strategy to communicate complex concepts in clear and meaningful ways.
The collection includes individual and collaborative work exploring multimedia learning, game-based learning, and instructional design solutions to real-world challenges.
Design Solution
This collaborative project, developed with Amelia Handcock and Ninoskha Santana Torres, examined the workplace problem of instructional designers being included too late in the development process, after key project decisions have already been made. Together, we researched and analyzed the problem, considered the needs of multiple stakeholders, and developed a solution focused on earlier instructional design involvement to improve collaboration, reduce rework, and better align learning solutions with organizational and learner needs.
What This Project Demonstrates
Performance problem analysis, research, stakeholder analysis, collaborative problem solving, empathy-driven design, and solution development.
