Senior Learning Experience Designer

Designing learning that changes how people think and perform.

I turn complex science and business content into interactive, scenario-driven e-learning — grounded in instructional theory, sharpened with AI-assisted workflows, and built to move real metrics.

About me

I'm a Senior Learning Experience Designer with eight years of K–12 instructional design experience, including four to five years adapting U.S.-built CK-12 curriculum content for CBSE alignment — revising learning objectives and lesson sequencing within established U.S. instructional and assessment frameworks.

My work spans end-to-end content review — standards alignment, reading-level appropriateness, and objective-to-assessment alignment — alongside storyboarding, script writing, and on-camera video production.

I work fluently with AI-assisted content workflows, generating content and assessment items validated through a dual-LLM and SME review process, then personally reviewing as subject-matter expert for accuracy and instructional quality.

I bring a Ph.D. in Chemistry and a KPMG-certified Instructional Design Practitioner credential, working day to day in Articulate Storyline 360, Rise, Vyond, Power BI, SQL, and generative AI tools.
