Performance Improvement
Many factors influence how people perform at work. As a consultant specializing in behavioral science, I help you identify, assess, and leverage these factors. Crucially, this process helps you invest in interventions that work, and avoid spending time and money on ones that don’t.
Our Process
1
Warm Welcome
After you reach out, we start an exploratory conversation. This is a chance for you to share the challenge you're facing, ask questions, and determine whether performance consulting is the right approach. If it feels like a good fit, I'll follow up with a proposed scope of work, timeline and next steps.
2
Understanding the system
We begin with a discovery phase to understand how work actually happens in your organization. This might include conversations with leaders and team members, reviewing existing materials or processes, and mapping the factors that influence performance.
3
Designing the path forward
With these insights in hand, we design solutions that fit your organization's context - whether that means improving processes, developing learning experiences, environmental nudges, or supporting behavior change in other ways.

eLearning Development
Whether you need help developing a course from scratch or bringing an existing storyboard to life in Articulate Storyline, I can help you create eLearning that is thoughtful, engaging, and built to support real performance.
A special word on eLearning...
Great eLearning isn't just about putting content online - it's about designing experiences that capture attention, spark curiosity, and help people apply what they learn.
Too often, eLearning becomes "click next" training: long slides, passive content, and little connection to real work. Even when the information is important, these experiences rarely change behavior.
This is where my approach is different. I combine analytical thinking with creative design to develop eLearning that is both engaging and grounded in solid learning principles. Every decision - from structure to interaction design - is informed by how people actual learn and how the business operates.
When designed well, eLearning offers powerful advantages. It is:
Scalable
eLearning can be scaled across teams, time zones and locations
Measureable
Engagement and progress are measured automatically
Time-effective
Saves time and money, in comparison to in-person events
Evidence-based
Allows the best learning strategies to be embedded into the learning experience, rather than relying on the skill of the instructor

Speaking & Workshops
Fresh perspectives and practical tools to help teams rethink learning, solve performance challenges, and design more engaging experiences.
Rethinking learning at work
Sometimes the most valuable thing we can offer a team is a new way of seeing their work. Through interactive talks and hands-on workshops, I help L&D professionals and leaders explore fresh perspectives on learning, behavior, and performance.
Drawing on behavioral science, adult learning principles, and real-world consulting experience, my sessions equip professionals with practical tools they can apply right away.
Workshop Tools
Workshops can be customized to your organization's goals, but popular topics include:
Using behavioral science in learning & development
Diagnosing performance challenges
Designing engaging and memorable workshops
Interactive tricks for eLearning that sticks
Putting adult learning principles into practice
