About Me

As a learning and development professional, instructional designer, and communications specialist, I am passionate about lifelong learning and continuous growth. I began my professional journey at the University of Texas at Arlington, where I earned a Bachelor of Arts in English with a minor in Technical Communication and Professional Design. During my time at UTA, I was honored to receive the Don Leigh Cravens Award for Outstanding Seniors and was recognized as a Liberal Arts Department Student Spotlight recipient. I graduated Cum Laude.

​

While pursuing my degree, I joined Academy 4 as a Communications Intern. Since then, I have advanced to the role of Communications Coordinator, first supporting Strategic Communications and later transitioning to the organization's Learning and Development team. In this role, I have strengthened my expertise in professional writing and editing, instructional design, curriculum development, graphic design, and organizational communications.

​

My technical skillset includes Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, Lightroom, and InDesign), Microsoft 365 (Word, PowerPoint, Outlook, OneNote, and SharePoint), Canva, Asana, Constant Contact, Squarespace, and Wix. I enjoy combining creativity and clear communication to develop engaging, impactful resources that support learning and organizational goals.

​

Outside of my professional work, I enjoy exploring a variety of creative pursuits, including reading, writing, drawing, sewing, sculpting, crocheting, and other artistic endeavors. I also love attending musicals and local events such as the Fort Worth Pinners Conference and Scarborough Renaissance Festival. At home, I share my life with two beloved pets: Phantom, my lizard, and Tiger, my cat.
