Teaching and Instructional Development
EXPERIENCE
I have created content for educational, business, and health sectors in various capacities while employed in different occupations and as a freelancer.
More recently in 2024, I have created advertisements and informational videos with generative Ai software for businesses affiliated with Wirefreesoft.com using avatars, face swaps, voice alterations, imagery, and text drawn from websites and reworked for more accessible and compelling content.

When I was a doctoral student at University of California Los Angeles, I also created digital media and blogs for courses while working as a teaching associate/fellow and co-instructor.
My recent curricular innovation education training is focused on new technologies and educational approaches that include:
