I have years of experience designing and developing instructional materials--everything from short tutorials to semester long courses. I am unable to give complete access to a number of these courses and materials because they are either password protected or because of their proprietary nature.

However, I have selected a few artifacts below as evidence of my curricular development experience. Mouse over the thumbnails for enlarged screenshots. I've also included specific artifacts whenever possible under the project name. Click on the specific artifacts when applicable.

[Note: Please read this chapter on Enterprise Models for more on the proprietary nature and team-based approach of some of the courses I designed and developed when working at Regis University]

While I have never been employed as a "graphic designer," I spend a great deal of time and energy applying instructional message design principles and an overall focus on aesthetics to everything I do--whether that is print-based or web-based. In fact, the majority of artifacts on this site illustrate my focus on the ways things are designed. To avoid redundancy, I have not included additional links to images. Simply mouseover the thumbnail for an enlarged view of the image.
