About magdaLand

It’s all about me…

HELLO AND THANK YOU FOR VISITING.

I have chosen to leave this website up even though I am no longer actively engaged in looking for work. I am open to short-term engagements involving projects that are focused on helping people learn and grow. Feel free to contact me with intriguing projects at pixpusher.com.

Original About Page Begins Here…

I am a Learning Experience Designer and Developer. For over 23 years I have designed learning experiences for great companies, both small and large. I come to the discipline after many years of creating multimedia experiences for theater, television, web design, and print media. This includes concept development, visual storytelling, scriptwriting, and storyboarding. I see these experiences sharing a common bond through strong creative processes, strategic goal setting, and delivering work on time and on budget.

I am experienced in designing detailed and structured blended learning programs in addition to smaller projects that help fill learning gaps. An overview of my analysis and design process is posted here, and I am happy to step through the process with you as needed.

Since I am under NDA I cannot publicly display the breadth of my work or recent experiences. Please contact me if you need to see something specific, would like a copy of my resume, or want more details about my experience and services.

I love using visual storytelling to explain complex systems or processes.
