While working with a variety of teams within Apple Retail, I design and develop a variety of interactive training experiences for use in Apple Stores around the world. My various design responsibilities include:

~ UX/UI and visual design: prototyping, review, feedback, design, and development.
~ Content creation: forming solid learning objectives and writing training content.
~ Feedback: solicitation from peers, training leaders, and thousands of store participants.
~ Collaboration: partnering with stakeholders, subject matter experts, and peers for design and review.

During my time in this role I employed my ability to analyze, harness laser focus, and fiercely the drive the project forward to create an unforgettable global experience that helped to enrich the lives of Apple Retail employees and customers alike. My labor and love into the project included responsibilities such as:

~ Creating and executing a robust project strategy that included all key milestones: discovery, design, development, delivery, and evaluation.
~ Designing the look and feel of all content (guides, keynotes, icons, interactive training apps, and more) and collaborating with developers to create apps and simulators used in training while maintaining Apple’s existing visual language.
~ Defining project and learning objectives, writing the bulk of the course material, and developing numerous fun activities to educate and captivate participants throughout their experience.
~ Soliciting and implementing feedback from a vast amount of employees: participants, trainers, corporate partners, store leaders, senior executives, and peers.
~ Partnering with over a dozen different teams to prepare the experience for a worldwide audience.

I led teams of near one hundred employees in each store. I worked closely with the store and market employees on training and development, customer service, product knowledge, and visual merchandising. I also partnered with Store Manager, Market Manager, and the rest of the store’s leadership team on overall vision and planning.

I lead and mentored the large team of Mac Specialists in the store, facilitated new hire training for entire bay area and worked closely with management team to address customer issues and shopper feedback.

I designed, developed, and maintained a college-sponsored broadcast website. I also encoded and re-sampled video files for Internet-ready use.
