Hi, I'm Jen.

I design learning experiences that inspire action and support lasting change.

Effective learning meets people where they are. I design with the learner in mind so the experience is accessible, meaningful,
& empowering.

LEARNER-CENTERED DESIGN

IMMERSIVE & ENGAGING EXPERIENCES

Active engagement
leads to
better recall 
real-world use. I design learning that pulls people in & gets them thinking, deciding, & doing.

Impact starts with intention. I design learning that aligns with organizational goals & drives meaningful results for real people.

PURPOSE-DRIVEN IMPACT

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

I am quite impressed with Jen's skills as an instructional designer. Her ability to take large amounts of learning and package it into an experience that is effortless and engaging is remarkable. "Attention to detail" is a common buzz phrase in instructional design, but in my mind, attention to detail is only noteworthy if attention is paid to the right details. This is where Jen really shines. She adds clever touches to her projects that are engaging, but truly add to the effectiveness of the learning. It's a great day when I get the opportunity to try out Jen's work!
