Hello!

I am a first-year Ph.D. student in the Learning, Design, & Technology program, and a full-time instructional designer in UGA's Office of Online Learning. My career experiences have inspired my research interests of instructional design in higher education. I am passionate about online learning and designing accessible, scalable and sustainable learning experiences. I hope to contribute to the models and frameworks available to help instructional designers analyze environments and make design decisions with staying power.

When I'm not at work or in class, I love to travel and see live music. I enjoy hiking, paddleboarding, snowboarding, reading, and cheering on our Bulldogs in Sanford Stadium in the fall.


Go Dawgs!
