About Me

As a Senior Learning and Development Specialist, I bring over 5 years of experience in designing, developing, and implementing engaging learning programs that drive business growth and employee development.

My educational background includes a Bachelor of Professional Communication and a Cert IV in Training and Assessment, providing me with a strong foundation in effective communication and instructional design.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a passion for creating engaging learning experiences that meet the unique needs of diverse audiences. I am skilled in analysing business objectives and learning needs to identify gaps and develop strategies to fill them. Whether it's through e-learning, instructor-led training, or blended learning solutions, I have a track record of delivering training programs that are both effective and enjoyable for learners.

In addition to my technical expertise, I am known for my strong project management skills and ability to collaborate with stakeholders at all levels of an organisation. I am committed to staying up-to-date with the latest learning and development trends and technologies, and I take pride in sharing my knowledge and experience with others to help them grow in their own careers.
