Lead Content Specialist and Designer for TNEEL Team at the University of Washington (UW): Finalized easy-to-access, teacher/learner-friendly content for CD-ROM titled Toolkit for Nursing Excellence at End of Life Transition. Additionally, led design, architecture, and content build of TNEEL SS and TNEEL APA websites with focus on unique user experiences.
Funded by a $1.6 million Robert Wood Johnson Foundation grant and initiated at the University of Washington, our successful marketing and coast-to-coast distributional achievements depended on engaging visual content and professional marketing brand identity that I created. As a team, we revolutionized how end-of-life care was taught to nurses and healthcare providers.
Creative, UX/UI, and Communications Duties Include:
• Designing/developing premier online course (TNEEL SS) to deliver TNEEL end-of-life content for continuing education (CE) credit
• Developing innovative TNEEL American Psychological Association (APA) online course, involving the journey mapping, user flows, and mockups
• Art direction and graphic design of all collateral marketing
• Packaging design (includes contracting with 3rd party manufacturers)
• Editing educational and multimedia material
• Creating 1000+ individual teaching slides
• Screenwriting (six scripts total)
• Meeting defined deadlines while multitasking audio-visual projects and multiple programs (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Premiere, ACID Audio, PowerPoint)
UX/UI Work for TNEEL: Both TNEEL SS and TNEEL APA utilized my unique skills in user experience (UX) and user interface (UI) design. I rebranded TNEEL in an education course for the American Psychological Association, creating an ethereal "kites" and "balloon" sky theme targeted for psychologists. This involved detailed research, journey mapping, mockups, and building wireframes for programmers to follow. The user experience of the TNEEL APA course design is based on the highly regarded Kolb experiential learning theory, allowing learners to choose from three different pathways.
Our team followed a process similar to the agile software development cycle and best practices UX design methods were adhered to. The creative and IT key players worked side-by-side solving many key technical hurdles.
