Hi, I’m Allie.

I’m a learning designer and former middle and high school English teacher with over a decade of experience creating meaningful, objective-aligned learning experiences.

In the classroom, I built curriculum grounded in the belief that English class should teach students both the language of power and the language of the heart. My work sharpened thinking, strengthened communication, and invited students to wrestle with big human questions.

Today, I bring that same philosophy to instructional design, creating structured learning experiences that build real skill and prepare people to act thoughtfully.

I’m currently expanding my technical toolkit in Articulate Storyline and Vyond while continuing to develop skills across the full learning design process, including learner needs analysis, scenario-based learning, scripting, and visual and interaction design. I look forward to applying these tools to mission-driven organizations whose work aligns with my values.

I live in Portland, Oregon with my partner and stepkids. I strive to develop learning experience that cultivate critical thinking, deepen empathy, and contribute to a more just and hopeful world.
