Hello! My name is Will.
I'm an Instructional Designer who champions having fun, sharing knowledge, and improving efficiency.
What do I do?
I'm an Instructional Designer and Learning Consultant at heart, but I'm proficient in many other areas, including:
- Project Management
- Needs Analysis
- Creating Videos from Concept to Completion
- Technical Writing
- Game Design
- Wireframing
- Project Planning
What do I care about?
I want to give others the means to succeed and learn more effectively. And hopefully, enable them to have fun learning!
- I bring lots of joy and energy to meetings that I am a part of
- I build resources and tools for internal teams to complete work more effectively
- I check in with learners and coworkers to ensure content is well-maintained
- I prepare systems and instructions for other team members to succeed, even if I am no longer with that company or team

Despite contributing only 10 hours a week, I lead or contribute to new hire onboarding, website design, instructional design, game design, quality assurance, project management, and more
I project managed the company-wide Salesforce Enhanced Domains update process - this involved updating over 5,000 knowledge article links, distributing instructions and information to over 1,500 employees, and collaborating with over 8 senior managers, directors, and executive team members. I otherwise was our generalist Instructional Designer and created a huge variety of learning for over 20,000 employees, partners, and customers using our bank operating system.
During periods where I was creating or editing process guide content, I published around 30 pages of content a week. When my team was struggling with our LMS, I created a 60 page LMS Process Guide for around 200 training team members to use.
I was initially hired to only update legacy documentation to modern DITA XML Standards. After excelling at that, I used my interest and proficiency in video production and editing to add another project to my 3 month internship; I worked with 5 teams to create over 50 globally-relevant workflow tutorial videos for 4 different pieces of software.
