I\u2019m a Digital Learning Technologist on the Interactive eLearning team, and I\u2019ve been lucky to call Bellevue College my professional home for over 20 years. I love helping faculty design meaningful online learning experiences and supporting them in using tools like Canvas, Cidi Labs, and Adobe products. One of the highlights of my time here has been guiding almost 400 faculty through the Online Excellence Teaching Academy (OETA).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In my role, I\u2019m passionate about blending creativity, technology, and Universal Design for Learning to make courses more inclusive and engaging. And when I\u2019m not at BC, I\u2019m usually with my family, watching movies, exploring Disneyland, walking the Gnome Trail, or getting lost in one of my many (many) craft supplies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-brutus-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-888844419b0bcca9bc2a26a25b6e18bc\">Education &amp; Certifications<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>eLearning Instructional Design &amp; Development | Oregon State Univ.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>AA Graphics &amp; Animation | Bellevue College<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Adobe Certified Associate | Adobe<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Adobe Creative Educator Level 1 &amp; 2 | Adobe<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Online Excellence in Teaching Academy (OETA) | Bellevue College<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Certified Higher Education Peer Reviewer | Quality Matters (QM)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-brutus-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-2980d0dd1a4e40aab864faeb50175b36\">Activities<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Online Excellence Teaching Academy (OETA) Project Coordinator<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Interactive eLearning Professional Development contributor\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Summer Institute, Month of Microlearning, Guidance for Accessible Material in Education (GAME), Online Excellence Teaching Academy (OETA)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Instructional Designer &#8211; School of Business and Technology<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Contributor &#8211; Accessibility Task Force Training Work Group<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Contributor &#8211; SBCTC eLearning Council Accessibility Group<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-brutus-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-824a3bdd7c0c8ad407f084ce648b3485\">Workshops Lead<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Access Granted: Building Accessible Canvas Content<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Part 1 &amp; 2: HTML Basics \u2013 What You\u2019re Really Seeing in the Rich Content Editor<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Byte-Sized PD: \n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Accessibility with the native Canvas accessibility checker<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Accessibility with Ally<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Accessibility with UDOIT<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Engage &amp; Reward: Using Canvas Badges to Boost Student Participation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Adobe Express for Educators<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cidi Labs: DesignPLUS<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-brutus-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-29b74ff19dd29e6a95de476c5c2e89ca\">Current CE Courses<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Photoshop: Essential Edits &amp; AI-Powered Tools for Efficiency<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Adobe Acrobat: Create Interactive Forms Like a Pro<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Adobe Illustrator Unlocked: AI Tools, Tips, and Shortcuts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Graphic Design Fundamentals<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Photoshop CC<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Illustrator CC<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>InDesign CC<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Adobe Express<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Working Designer<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"callout-wrapper col\">\n\t<aside class=\"callout text-margin-reset \">\n\t\t<h3 class=\"callout__heading card-title-small\">Your Course, Upgraded<\/h3>\n\t\t<p>From design tweaks to tech tools, I\u2019ve got plenty of tricks to share.
