Instructional Designer & Learning Innovator

About Me

I'm Lydia, an instructional designer with roots in music, education, and entrepreneurship. Over the past decade, I've taught students, built a handmade business, and coached entrepreneurs, experiences that fuel my creativity and adaptability as a learning designer.

I specialize in creating learning experiences that are engaging, accessible, and impactful. My approach is shaped by storytelling, design thinking, and the belief that learning should feel meaningful, not mechanical.

When I’m not designing, you’ll find me making music, cooking for my family of six, or dreaming up new creative projects. These passions keep me grounded and inspire the way I bring learning to life.
