I’ve always been passionate about making complex information clear, engaging, and accessible. My career path has included several focus areas including K-12 science education, instructional design, and now health literacy. What has guided me every step of the way is my belief that understanding leads to empowerment.

​

As the Health Editor at UW Medical Center, I write and publish patient education resources that simplify medical information and improve accessibility for diverse populations. By combining instructional design principles with health literacy strategies, I ensure patients receive clear, actionable information that improves their experiences and outcomes.

​

My background in teaching and instructional design gives me the ability to break down complex topics and present them in ways that resonate with all learners. Across all my projects, whether I'm writing healthcare materials, developing e-learning courses, or designing process improvements, I focus on clarity, accessibility, and impact.

​

Areas of focus:

• Health literacy and patient education

• Instructional design and e-learning development

• Accessibility and inclusion in healthcare

• Research and advocacy in public health communication

​

As I continue to grow in this field, I aim to collaborate with others who are passionate about health literacy, patient advocacy, and accessible learning design.
