About me banner

Instructional design is an art form. Similar to carpentry or metalwork, there is a craft to designing a supportive, functioning, and enjoyable learning experience. With a knowledge of learning theories and best practices, an agile mindset, and a passion for helping others, I am the key to unlocking your organization's learning potential.

I have over 10 years of professional experience in curriculum development, learner-centered instruction, and project and program management. I am a strong proponent of active communication and strive to create an environment conducive to completing the tasks at hand. I specialize in a variety of learning models including cooperative, collaborative, and project-based learning. My current goal is to synthesize my knowledge of cooperative and collaborative learning with AI.

Accolades and Testimonials

"[Mike's] thoughtfulness in studio, shaping words and phrases to make them stronger, was a great learning experience for me... I appreciate [his] clarity. Every decision [he] made, from words to graphics, helped me learn the content better. So, I’m sure this learning will transfer over to the students of the program!"
