About Learn & Work

I'm a learning designer, strategist, and facilitator with over 10 years of experience. Through my independent consultancy, Learn & Work, I weave together human-centered design, adult learning and development, and facilitation to deliver engaging and holistic learning experiences to improve culture and organizational development. I've contributed to the success of government agencies, higher education, and healthcare (to name a few). Whether it’s designing and leading a collaborative decision-making process or developing workshops and engagement programs, I always embed joy and play, nervous system awareness, and equity and inclusion approaches to create useful, usable, and desirable solutions. 

I hold an MA Ed. in Adult Learning and Development from Portland State University and certificates in Human-Centered Design from the LUMA Institute. Outside of work, I dedicate time to being outside, performance art, and ongoing studies in the art and science of scent. I currently reside in Portland, Oregon on the traditional land of the Multnomah, Wasco, Cowlitz, Kathlamet, Clackamas, Bands of Chinook, Tualatin, Kalapuya, Molalla, and honor with gratitude the land itself and the people who have and continue to steward it throughout the generations.
