Instructional Design

Performance-Targeted, Learner-Centered Training & Education

About

Have you ever sat through a lesson taught by someone who was clearly brilliant, but had no idea how to make the information learnable? Have you ever worked for a company that had no process for getting you acquainted on day one? Have you ever sat through a tedious elearning module that could have been an email?

If so, then I'm happy to tell you there are folks like me who can help turn just about any subject matter into engaging content and develop strategic systems for improving employee performance.

I am an instructional designer and former college writing instructor. My whole professional career has been focused on empowering others to achieve their personal and professional goals through education-whether that's professional development, hands-on training, coursework, or one-on-one mentoring. There are over 10,000 users currently taking courses that I have designed or were designed under my leadership. My work has been recognized by Brandon Hall and Chief Learning Officer Magazine.

I have a Ph.D. in English from St. John's University (Queens, NY). My academic research focuses on student engagement, transfer of learning, and writing across the curriculum.

I love what I do, and I would love to help you.

"Nicole 'hears' what I am saying (which sometimes is confusing even to me) and then makes it so. Nicole is a strategic thinker and executes flawlessly. And topping it off- is a pleasure to work with." - David Page, New Road Media
