Hi I'm Diane! I'm a graphic designer, illustrator, and web designer who specializes in eLearning and instruction. If you need someone who can design for learners and students I'm the one for you!
Whether it's interactive eLearning, or through animated videos or infographics, I design user interfaces and user experiences that are functional and educational. My classroom experience in teaching teens and adults gives an extra dimension of insight to my work.
For building eLearning I use the Adobe Creative Suite to create animations, illustrations, audio, and video, and Articulate Storyline for interactivity. With those tools I create a dynamic, immersive eLearning experiences to engage, assess, and challenge learners, helping them absorb and retain knowledge and information. I am also very familiar with learning management systems (LMS), such as Absorb LMS and SABA, and content management systems such as Joomla, WordPress and Sitecore.
When I'm not in front of my computer designing, I'm working on my traditional art, doing yoga or acro yoga, learning stationary trapeze and aerial hoop, or playing my ukulele. I love to travel and I love teaching anything!
