I am an educator and organizational leader specializing in adult learning theories and applied learning sciences. Currently, I serve as the Associate Director for Staff Training and Development at the Colorado Department of Corrections, where I focus on implementing comprehensive, system-wide employee development programs. In addition to my administrative work, I am an Adjunct Instructor at Pikes Peak State College, teaching courses on business and legal environments.

My approach to education and training is heavily rooted in frameworks like the ADDIE model and systems thinking, ensuring that curriculum design is not only engaging but strategically aligned with organizational goals. I have also designed and instructed online graduate courses, focusing on shaping learning organizations and mentoring future leaders.

Education:

• Doctor of Education (Ed.D.) in Applied Learning Sciences, University of Miami

• Master of Public Administration (MPA), Columbia University

• Master of Arts in Organizational Management, Dallas Baptist University

Throughout my career across public administration, higher education, and staff development, I have continuously explored how adults learn best and how organizations can cultivate environments of continuous improvement. Below is a curated collection of my academic writings, professional publications, and articles on instructional design, learning sciences, and leadership.
