Meaningful by Design.

Beautiful with Intention.

Creativity without strategy is decoration. Strategy without creativity is forgettable. I bring the two together, blending instructional design, UX, and visual storytelling to create eLearning that’s as purposeful as it is beautiful.

 

Because learning shouldn’t be dull, clunky, or hard to look at, it should feel as good as it functions, crafted to connect, built to stick, and designed to make your message matter.

Thoughtful. Memorable. Built with intention and care.

I help organizations turn learning goals into interactive, inclusive training that delivers.

Real clients. Real results. Always built with care. 

What I Bring to the Table

Every learning experience starts with a story, about your audience, their challenges, and the change you want to spark. I bring that story to life with a blend of strategy, visual design, and development, balancing beauty and function every step of the way.

Storytelling

Whether it's through precise instructional flow or animated explainer scenes, I turn ideas into narrative-driven learning. My background in instructional design, scriptwriting, and animation helps simplify complex topics and connect with real people, because when learning feels like a story, it sticks.

Strategy

Great design starts with great decisions. From curriculum mapping and outcomes-based planning to agile development, I shape learning experiences that are grounded in purpose. I work across industries, law, mental health, STEM, and more to build training that drives impact.

Visual Design

Looks matter when it comes to learning. I bring a UX mindset to every build, designing polished experiences in Storyline, Rise 360, and H5P that flow beautifully, feel intuitive, and work seamlessly in platforms like Canvas, Moodle, or LearnDash. Good design isn’t fluff; it’s how learners feel supported.

From Challenge to Adventure
When asked to create a course on hiking safety, I didn’t want to make another slideshow. Instead, I designed a gamified Rise 360 experience that feels like an app in your pocket, complete with scenarios, survival choices, and a hydration calculator learners can use on the trail.

What are they saying?

 "In our 14 years in business, Johnetta stands out as a Top 5 hire, hands down. She's revived dying projects, stepped in to provide VERY detail-oriented project management to help alleviate the drastic scope creep created by another PM (who had 18 years of PM experience, herself), and autonomously engages clients on her own so well that they request her by name. You will get a passionate, dedicated educator who will step in and step up, even if it means gaining new skills on her own time to bring to the already impressive work done. Johnetta is my #1 go-to for complex Instructional Design and PM needs, above everyone."
