I develop talent by designing and enabling interactive learning experiences and growth opportunities that engage employees and address specific, performance-based needs. My natural aptitude for design allows me to zero in on performance problems, accurately analyze needs and determine the best solutions to develop within a project's time and resource constraints. I'm known for delivering appealing designs, embracing an innovative approach, and getting results. Relationships are key, so I lead with an open, collaborative style and greatly enjoy working with others to transform ideas into success.
