About Me
I'm Mckenzie, a learning and development enthusiast dedicated to creating impactful learning experiences. With a diverse background spanning various industries, I bring a unique blend of creativity, strategic thinking, and a passion for empowering others to reach their full potential.
My journey in education and training has equipped me with the skills to design dynamic learning programs, streamline processes, and bridge knowledge gaps effectively. Whether it's crafting engaging content, facilitating trainings, or leveraging technology for innovative solutions, I thrive on the opportunity to inspire and educate others.
Driven by a commitment to lifelong learning and continuous improvement, I am excited to collaborate with you to develop customized training solutions that drive results and foster growth. Let's embark on this journey together to create transformative learning experiences that empower individuals and organizations to succeed.
In my personal time, I love to paint, cook, and read. I also love the mountains and ski as much as I can in the winter. In the summers, you can catch me riding my bike to the farmers market for fresh sourdough donuts.
