Biography

Welcome to my corner of the digital world! I am a passionate individual with a unique journey that has shaped my expertise in both the realms of neuroscience and education. My career kicked off with an immersive exploration into the genetic contributors of Parkinson’s disease, where I delved into the microscopic world of the transparent nematode C.elegans.

Following the successful completion of my PhD, I transitioned into the dynamic realm of education, where I dedicated myself to molding minds at both post-graduate and secondary school levels. However, my journey didn’t stop there. A natural evolution led me into the captivating field of Instructional Design, where I discovered my true calling in crafting engaging and effective learning experiences.

What sets me apart is the diverse tapestry of experiences that I bring to the table. Having worn the hats of a researcher, educator, and instructional designer, I possess a unique ability to empathize with both facilitators and learners. This innate understanding fuels my passion for creating learning environments that resonate with the needs and aspirations of all stakeholders.

My background in Neuroscience isn’t just a credential; it’s a valuable asset that guides me in designing learning engagements rooted in the principles of the science of learning. I believe in harnessing the power of cognitive science to optimize eLearning platforms, creating experiences that not only educate but also inspire.

As I embark on this exciting journey, I eagerly anticipate new collaborative opportunities. Together, let’s transform eLearning for the future, integrating cutting-edge insights from neuroscience into the fabric of education. Join me on this adventure, and let’s shape the future of learning, one digital experience at a time.
