ABOUT ME
Hi there! I’m Kristi Hittner, an experienced eLearning Instructional Designer. I’m passionate about crafting interactive and innovative learning experiences that leverage adult learning principles for successful outcomes. I prioritize effective communication, active listening, and a range of tools in course development. Additionally, I am passionate about process improvement, continuously striving to identify ways to enhance workflow, reduce redundancies, and find more efficient methods.

AREAS OF FOCUS
Instructional Design
I am a passionate eLearning instructional designer with a strong track record in creating and crafting courses from inception to completion. My approach to instructional design typically adheres to the ADDIE model, with a focus on iterative improvement. This entails conducting thorough needs analyses, collaborating with subject matter experts, writing course content, and developing assets. Ultimately, I deliver a polished course package tailored to the specified Learning Management System (LMS) format.
Project Management
I oversee the instructional design process of multiple concurrent projects, manage stakeholder relationships, and meet quarterly course release deadlines. To help ensure smooth project execution, I prefer to establish expectations early in the process, determine the preferred method of communication, and maintain regular check-ins throughout. Additionally, I utilize project management tools such as Asana and OneNote to stay organized and collaborate effectively with freelancers.
