About

My learning and development career began with instructional content and interactive simulation writing and quickly broadened to consultation, development tool management, learning delivery, skills management, metrics, learning strategy, and communications. I have worked for high-performing business units at Broadcom, VMware, UnitedHealthcare, and Morgan Stanley. My most notable recent achievements include: leading strategic initiatives to define and document LXP and LMS governance and publishing guidelines; developing a learning-objective and metadata-driven Bill of Materials for sales and technical roles; and creating and managing a role-based competencies program with over 400 skills for over 7,000 users in 90 roles.
