With years of experience in the classroom I have mastered the skills needed for designing learning materials to achieve desired learning outcomes. I have worked with many stakeholders, so you can rely on me for the successful completion and fruition of your next project.

I’ve spent most of these years working across different areas of design within the education sector.  Having worked on various projects that are already live, I can help you with the best possible suggestions and ideas that we can proceed with. With me, you aren’t forced to accept anything. I give you a variety of options we can work on together.
