Higher-education learning architect and curriculum designer with 20+ years in teaching and learning, more than seven years in university settings, and three master’s degrees in education. I understand university culture, build trust quickly, and translate program identity into learning that faculty can teach and students can use.
Noodle’s Learning Architect connects program identity, faculty experience, course quality, partner communication, and student success. That is where my career has developed.
Today I teach within the Ulster University partnership at Shaanxi University of Science and Technology, designing curriculum for students entering a different academic culture. At Kyung Hee University, I designed courses, mentored learners, trained working public-school teachers, and led a university studio initiative.
Excellent partnership work is strategic and human: listen, put faculty at ease, clarify program identity, give teams usable direction, review honestly, and improve through student evidence.
A collaborative process that protects program identity and enables faculty and build teams to do their best work.
Understand the university, faculty dynamics, learners, constraints, and definition of success.
Clarify the program voice, learner promise, outcomes, and principles guiding every course.
Connect program and course outcomes to sequence, practice, assessment, and the student journey.
Translate academic vision into clear templates, exemplars, expectations, and guidance.
Give formative feedback on alignment, clarity, engagement, accessibility, and assessment.
Use feedback, participation, performance, and data to strengthen retention and success.
Curriculum design, faculty development, student engagement, multimedia leadership, and partnership in practice.
International Lecturer and Learning Experience Designer supporting Chinese students in an Ulster University partnership program.
Assistant Professor, curriculum designer, and English teacher trainer within a major South Korean university.
Designed experiences that transformed low speaking confidence into visible, authentic performance.
Directed a university production initiative from team formation through two completed seasons.
Capabilities to guide program vision, support faculty, align build teams, and improve student experience.
I go deep into course details while keeping the program, institution, and learner journey in view.
Beyond higher education, I built a two-person media company that completed 2,500+ production cycles and earned 110M+ long-form views—strengthening my audience insight, storytelling, quality review, execution, negotiation, and evidence-based improvement.
I am also developing EvidenceOS, an AI-assisted platform that makes academic research workflows clearer without replacing human judgment.
I would welcome the opportunity to help Noodle and its university partners design, build, review, and continuously improve learning experiences that students can complete—and carry forward.
