Welcome to my website! I'm Spencer, an instructional designer with a passion for creating effective and engaging learning experiences. With a background as a former 4th-grade teacher, I've transitioned from the classroom to the world of instructional design, driven by my desire to teach adults about and through technology.

What inspired me to become an instructional designer was my hands-on experience in developing learning opportunities for my students and assisting fellow educators in navigating instructional technologies. Those experiences ignited my curiosity and led me to explore the field of instructional design.

During my time as a teacher, I honed various skills and expertise that I now bring to my instructional design work. I possess strong technology skills, enabling me to leverage a wide range of digital tools and platforms. Attention to detail and the ability to multitask were essential in managing my classroom, and I carry those traits forward into designing well-organized and cohesive learning experiences.

My teaching style was centered around creating engaging lessons that captured my students' interest and facilitated their understanding. I firmly believe in the power of active learning, interactivity, and incorporating real-world examples to make educational content relatable and memorable.
