I learned by practicing first. Now I design that for others.

Accessibility is built in from the start, not added at the end. Every project follows WCAG 2.1 and Universal Design for Learning.

I rebuilt my career in a new country and a second language, moving through design, teaching, and learning design. Each step taught me the same thing: confidence comes from getting the chance to practice, not from waiting until you're ready.

Today I design onboarding, leadership, and compliance training for multi-site and multilingual workforces: scenario-based eLearning, blended ILT/VILT programs, and AI coaching tools like Cultural Compass. I partner with HR, operations, and SMEs to turn complex processes into practice people use on the job.
