Technology-Based Creative Works
This section highlights technology-driven creative works that merge thoughtful design with strong theoretical underpinnings. Each project addresses a specific instructional, organizational, or analytical need while contributing to my broader research goals. In my role as a developer or key collaborator, I shaped these tools to address real user challenges and deliver measurable value. Many of the projects focus on healthcare contexts that reflect both academic specialization and industry relevance. This work demonstrates my ability to transform theory into effective, scalable digital solutions.

University of California, Berkeley
School of Public Health
This creative work was created during my time at the University of California, Berkeley, School of Public Health, Online Master of Public Health Program. The video is a snapshot of the new student orientation course that I developed as an offering for students who want to learn more about the program's inner workings, the educational technology available, and opportunities to instill DEI principles while working through coursework. No audio is available on the video. Link

Healthcare Information Management System Society (HIMSS )​
This creative work was developed as Lead Instructional Designer at The Health Information Management Systems Society (HIMSS). I developed two instructional assets grounded in Sweller's Cognitive Load Theory and Mayer's Principles of Multimedia Learning. The Data Analytics, Interpretation, and Reporting (DAIR) course consisted of 8 modules and was designed to scaffold complex analytical skills while minimizing extraneous cognitive load through structured sequencing and focused visuals. The AI in Healthcare course included 4 modules that applied multimedia principles to introduce concepts clearly to individuals working in the health ecosystem. Link

LTEC 6020- Advanced Instructional Design Course
Final Project​
This creative work displays the asset from the project developed for LTEC 6020. The project features an introductory video created for a learning unit on healthy sleep practices. The video uses clear narration, simple motion graphics, and relatable scenarios to explain why sleep matters and how daily habits affect rest. This AI-created avatar was developed to introduce course content about the topic unit on healthy sleep practices. It serves as the unit’s hook, guiding learners into the complete set of objectives, activities, and assessments outlined in the accompanying instructional design blueprint for my scholarly works.

LTEC 6200 & 6030 - Message Design in Learning Technologies & Emerging Technology​
This creative work displays the assets developed from LTEC 6200. I'm featuring a pair of educational message designs focused on how information and meaning are shaped through video, verbal, and print mediums. The first asset highlights principles of UX design for educators and trainers, showing how clear structure and intuitive flow support effective learning. The second asset applies Mayer's principles of multimedia learning to demonstrate how thoughtful pairing of words and visuals improves message clarity. Both assets were created from constructs learned in the course. Link

​​​This creative work displays how new technologies can support learning, highlighting both their benefits and challenges in real educational settings. This project, “AI as a Reading Ally,” was a collaboration between Jeremy Pelly and me that demonstrated how AI can help learners with dyslexia by making reading clearer and more accessible. As business professionals, we both brought our expertise to this project, supporting educational, professional, and personal insights on this important topic that could be transformational. Link
