"I managed an enterprise knowledge system for fifteen thousand employees across US and Canada: content creators learning governance frameworks, administrators mastering workflow automation, end users navigating new tools. I created comprehensive training materials including a sixty-page handbook complete with video tutorials, led onboarding sessions for regional teams, and mentored technical staff across multiple departments.

My background includes three and a half years toward a Bachelor's degree in Media Arts and Animation from the Art Institute of Las Vegas, plus Six Sigma Green Belt certification for process improvement. I have hands-on experience with advanced data analysis (Smartsheet, Excel, SQL), creative tools (Blender 3D modeling, Adobe suite, video editing), and programming (Python, game development in Godot Engine, C++ basics),. I've also contributed to open-source audio software with my VCV Rack plugin. I work best in one-on-one or small group settings where I can adapt my pace and approach to each student's learning style, always focusing on building both skills and confidence together.

My philosophy is simple: start with what you're trying to accomplish, then find what you need to get there. When someone wants to learn Smartsheet, I don't teach them every function—I teach them how to solve their specific problem, and we build knowledge from there. I'm particularly good at translating between technical and non-technical languages because I've done it professionally for over a decade. I can help adult professionals, small business owners, and anyone who needs practical skills they can use immediately at work or in their projects." less...
