Keys to Margie's Passion

Who am I?

Professionally: 

• I am a Certified Professional in Training and Performance (CPTP) with a recent certificate in U.S. Healthcare Compliance and 20+ years of experience in the life sciences/pharmaceuticals, IT,  and education industries. 

• I am an experienced instructional designer skilled at partnering with subject matter experts (SMEs) and asking probing analysis questions to uncover root business challenges—breaking down highly technical and regulatory content into practical learning solutions. 

• I am recognized for designing healthcare/pharmaceutical learning solutions to address compliance-related issues, reduce regulatory risk, and enhance knowledge proficiency for real-world compliance applications.

• I lead with integrity and through a coaching style that fosters collaboration and motivates a growth and 'tech-forward' mindset for increased efficiency.

Personally: I have been married for many years to my college sweetheart, and I am a mother to 3 young adults.

What do I do? What are my interests?

Professionally: 

• I am currently a contractor for Tier 1 Performance, which recently acquired LHT Learning, where I was a Senior Instructional Designer. I'm professionally interested in compliance training and recently completed Seton Hall University's U.S. Healthcare Compliance Certificate Program. Previously, I was an Instructional Designer at Red Nucleus in its training institute division (RNTI), designing on-demand GxP eLearning courses.

• I design learning solutions for the life sciences, pharmaceutical, healthcare, and IT industries by collaborating with subject matter experts, technical engineers, compliance experts, project managers, medical writers, graphic designers, editors, and strategists. 

• I am most proud of a Corporate Integrity Agreement training I developed in Articulate Rise to support a pharmaceutical company's required training.

Personally: I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, hiking/walking, biking, skiing, reading, and watching movies.  I love the beach, but I prefer the mountains! I also enjoy listening to music, singing, and playing my flute in a small ensemble, singing in a community choir, and serving those in need in my community. I am known for being creative with Canva and Amazon Photos, designing cards, posters, photo books/calendars, and flyers!

Where am I going? What are my goals?

Professionally: 

• My goal is to continue designing and developing learning solutions to solve real-world business problems for organizations in the life sciences, pharmaceutical, healthcare, or IT industries. I am also open to other opportunities. 

• I invest in lifelong learning by taking professional development courses, exploring and experimenting with technologies and tools, attending webinars and conferences, and reading literature to stay current with learning trends. 

Personally: Life is short, and opening my heart to my passions matters, too. As a result, my goal is to improve my work-life balance, spend more time with my family, engage in activities I enjoy, and cherish the simple things in life.
