Instructional Design
I believe art serves as a bridge for education, and I value how technology can enhance learning through the layering and organization of information.
My instructional design process typically involves meeting subject matter experts, conducting research, storyboarding or wireframing, creating assets, integrating content, and implementing feedback. I’m experienced with common instructional design models (ADDIE, SAM, and Bloom’s Taxonomy) and skilled in producing ADA-compliant visuals, animations, and interactive designs with a variety of software.
My technical toolset includes: ClickUp, Monday (Operations/Project Management); Articulate Rise, Canvas, Moodle (Curriculum Design); WordPress, Loveable, WIX, Shopify (UI / UX); 3DsMax, Maya (3D Modeling); After Effects (Video Editing); AR, VR, Unity (Immersive Design, Gamification); Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop (Digital Illustration).
Tufts University School of Medicine: Center for Science Education
Examples from Teaching the Great Diseases curriculum for science educators.
The Journal of Medical Insight
Minimally Invasive Parathyroidectomy Under Local Cervical Block Anesthesia for Primary Hyperparathyroidism and Parathyroid Adenoma, Yale School of Medicine.
For more examples of medical animations, please see PUBLICATIONS & COLLABORATIONS
University of Connecticut
Led website design to deploy multi-module curriculum under the University Conn's NEAG School of Education. Included educator and student portals.
Journal Of Medical Insight, Animation Team Training
At the Journal of Medical Insight, I built an Articulate Rise onboarding system to accelerate training for new animators, improving workflows between surgeons, editors, and animators.
Tufts University School of Medicine, Center for Science Education: Cancer Simulation for Remote Instruction
Developed an interactive WebGL simulation for high school students to explore cancer biology using 2D/3D graphics. Built with InVision, 3ds Max, Unity, and Adobe tools, it features intuitive navigation, a progress-tracking menu, and interactive elements like draggable sliders and rotatable 3D models. Feedback from eight educators guided refinements for clarity, usability, and engagement.
University of Glasgow, Pelvic Reconstruction via 3D Slicer
As part of the University of Glasgow’s Master of Medical Visualization and Human Anatomy program, I gained experience in recoloring 3D MRI data using 3D Slicer. This example illustrates pre- and post-surgery views of pelvic reconstruction following a motorcycle accident.
