I spent a career teaching the U.S. Navy how to teach. Since 2023 I have paired that craft with production AI, building systems that design, produce, and ship learning at a fraction of traditional cost and time. Instructional design is the discipline; AI is the method. Triple-credentialed in the science of teaching (Master Training Specialist, Instructional Systems Specialist, M.Ed. in Curriculum Design and Instruction) with 20 years in the U.S. Navy and 19 as a Department of the Navy civilian, 26 years of it in training and instructional design.
Challenge: produce a steady stream of teaching videos solo, without a studio, crew, or per-video budget.
Built: an end-to-end pipeline — AI script to storyboard to generated illustration (character-consistent via reference-locking), AI voiceover, motion and captioning, and a reuse engine that searches a 500+ asset library before spending on new generation.
Result: a 10-minute educational video for roughly $2 in media generation; a dozen-plus episodes published and syndicated across four channels; an asset-reuse system that cut per-episode production cost by about half.
Instructional design + generative media + Python automation
Challenge: a content library that kept stalling because every post required a manual publishing session.
Built: an automated pipeline that sources images to spec, publishes future-dated posts to the web platform on a set cadence, and writes its own completion record so the log can never drift from what actually shipped.
Result: a 350-post engine that runs hands-off; one run schedules weeks of content with zero manual posting and a self-auditing record.
Workflow automation + data integrity + responsible record-keeping
Challenge: design and produce a complete four-tier course library, normally a team-and-budget effort.
Built: AI-assisted design and media production across the whole catalog, held to a consistent instructional standard and outcome-first lesson architecture, published live to a learning platform.
Result: four published tiers and roughly 1,800 finished learning assets (about 569 videos, 680 documents, 551 graphics) built and shipped by one person.
Instructional systems design at scale + AI media production
Challenge: run an entire operation solo without losing the thread across dozens of moving parts.
Built: a versioned knowledge system where the working record is the source of truth — generated dashboards (never hand-edited), automated reconciliation that flags any drift between the record and the live systems, and an AI partner working directly against that knowledge base.
Result: one person operating with the coverage of a team, with a record that stays trustworthy because integrity is enforced by tooling, not memory.
