Design has become an instrumental part of my life since I became an educator. Before teaching, I never gave much thought to the power that a well-designed presentation, lesson, or activity could have. Now, I've learned that design can affect not only learner engagement, but also motivation, enjoyment, and the acquisition of new material. I am excited to be part of a field that allows me to combine by love of education with my passion for design.
