Tools & Technologies

The authoring tools, learning platforms, and technologies I use to design and deliver effective learning experiences.

advanced

I use Photoshop and Illustrator for custom training graphics, scenario imagery, and branded visual assets. InDesign handles facilitator guides and print-ready job aids that look polished enough for stakeholder presentations.
