Learning Experience Design

How I Create Impact

Designing practical, engaging learning experiences grounded in adult learning principles, focused on performance and real-world application rather than content delivery.

Representative Examples
Parallel Brands - Frontline Manager Development

Problem:  Rapid growth led to widespread promotion of frontline managers without sufficient people management experience, increasing strain on HR and impacting engagement.
Solution:  Designed and delivered a mandatory one-day workshop for 120 using an improv-based approach to model real challenges, followed by HR facilitated interactive discussions to identify appropriate responses and resources. Workshop learning was reinforced through bi-weekly virtual cohort sessions and coaching. 

Outcome:  Reduced requests to HR for basic employee relations support, improved employee engagement survey results, and increased capability among frontline managers.​​​

Capability Building

Client Centered Training

Epic-Premier Insurance Solutions - Industry and Client Simulations

Problem: Engineers and technical support staff had little insurance industry knowledge, leading to challenging disconnects with clients.

Solution: Created eLearning courses that built foundational property and casualty insurance knowledge and simulated how various client roles interacted with proprietary software in real workflows.

Outcome:  Shifted staff understanding from system functionality to real-world client workflows, improving relevance and effectiveness in client-facing scenarios.

Epic-Premier Insurance Solutions - Train-the-Trainer Program

Problem:  Subject matter experts delivered onsite client training as lengthy product demos, resulting in low engagement, limited knowledge transfer, and the need for continued comprehensive support.​

Solution:  Designed and facilitated a five-day workshop focused on adult learning principles, facilitation skills, interactive design, contingency planning, and practice-based feedback.

Outcome:  More confident trainers, higher-quality client training experiences with improved instructional consistency, and reduced ongoing support.
