Three projects.
Three capabilities.

Interactive learning you can click through — not screenshots. Each launches in a new tab, fully functional.

01 Security Awareness · Storyline 360
Phishing simulation summative assessment slide with timer, Slack notification, and hover revealing a falsified email domain

Phishing:
What to Do

A branching phishing simulation with real-time decision-making under 60-second timer pressure. Boolean gating logic requires learners to investigate red flags — falsified domain, suspicious URL — via hover mechanics before enabling the correct response path. Synchronized Slack social-pressure notification with native audio cue. Three branching outcomes with differentiated remediation.

  • Variables & conditional triggers
  • Timer variable logic
  • Hover mechanics & layer states
  • Branching scenarios
  • Audio synchronization

02 Compliance Training · Rise 360
TCEQ Chapter 112 Sulfur Compound Control course cover

TCEQ Ch. 112:
Sulfur Compound
Control

A nine-section modular course on Texas Commission on Environmental Quality regulations for industrial facilities. AI-generated voiceover, interactive flashcards, matching activities, economic impact visualization, and a color-coded branching scenario with three remediation paths. Designed for energy facility operators and environmental technicians in Texas.

  • Nine interactive sections
  • AI-generated voiceover
  • Branching assessment with remediation
  • Regulatory content architecture
  • Rapid production pipeline

de Azufre

Full Spanish-language localization of the TCEQ Chapter 112 compliance course — AI-generated native voiceover with post-edited translation, refined technical terminology (e.g., "Estándares Nacionales de Calidad del Aire Ambiental"), and linguistic register adapted for the Spanish-speaking industrial workforce in Texas petrochemical facilities.

  • End-to-end translation workflow
  • AI voiceover with native-speaker QA
  • Technical terminology validation
  • Cultural-linguistic adaptation
  • Every module, every assessment

03 About

I'm a Technical Instructional Designer who spent 14 years teaching humans before learning to build the tools that teach them at scale.

Classroom pedagogy taught me what actually changes behavior — and what only looks like learning. That distinction drives everything I build now.

My portfolio focuses on scenario-based simulations with real decision-making under pressure: a phishing training with Boolean gating logic, timer mechanics, and synchronized social-engineering cues. A bilingual compliance course localized end-to-end for Spanish-speaking industrial workforces. Complex systems behind simple interfaces. I work in Articulate Storyline 360 and Rise 360, with a technical foundation in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript from 600+ hours of freeCodeCamp certification.

Based in Katy, Texas. Bilingual English/Spanish at professional level. Open to remote Technical Instructional Designer, Learning Experience Designer, and eLearning Developer roles.

If you're building training that needs to actually work — not just check a compliance box — let's talk.
