The technical aspects of instructional design can be complex. I work hard to ensure that what I make works as intended.
Creativity
Instructional design is a creative endeavor. I find opportunities to be creative in all my work.
Collaboration
Work is about relationships, it is difficult to be successful without each other. I collaborate with others to gather and present information.
