Biography
💡 As an instructional designer at Stanford Medicine, I am passionate about creating engaging learning experiences for clinicians and healthcare teams around the world. I combine my expertise as an educator, researcher, instructional designer, and eLearning developer to contribute to the development of impactful and innovative medical education.
🎓 As a first generation college student, I earned my B.A. in Education Sciences from UC Irvine, where I became a published researcher in the Digital Learning Lab. I then earned my M.A. in Education from Stanford University, and a few years later, my M.Ed. in Instructional Design from Western Governors University while working. Throughout the past few years, in addition to my full-time work in K-12 schools and higher education, I've spent my time presenting at various education conferences throughout California, guest speaking — recently being interviewed on the Sacramento CBS News, and volunteering at nonprofits as an instructional designer, eLearning developer, and learning designer.
👩🏻💻 Recognized nationally as a LifeChanger of the Year (2021) and as a learning leader through the Learning Guild's Thirty Under 30 cohort (2023), I am committed to advancing learning and making an impact in education through the effective integration of technology and design.
