My name is Chandler (yes like the guy from friends)
Hi Everyone! I'm Chandler, and I am very new to this world... I actually come from a medical background, but it really was not my passion in life.
I had 2 niche degrees, 3 years into a career I didn't enjoy, and no clue where to go next. But hey... turns out skills are transferable! I took the leap in investing in myself and learning new things. I got a job at a new company that I knew literally nothing about but I was willing to put the work in to learn. Turns out it was a great move on my part because I was introduced to Learning & Development. Here, I have really found a passion for training and developing individuals.
I recently moved into a role as a facilitator for in-person and virtual trainings, but I have always enjoyed anything that allows me to be creative. I have just been introduced to the creation of e-learning and Articulate by a coworker on my team. I have been enjoying learning the platform and expanding my skill set :)đź’—

Nice to meet you, Chandler! Very interesting turn of events, and glad you found your passion in L&D! I had a slightly similar situation where I started my career as an Auditor and then shifted into L&D cause I had the same realization.
That said, same boat as you, I enjoy creating e-learns using Rise and Storyline. Keen to learn more and learn from your experience!

Glad to have you here, welcome!chandleru​: Could your intro line be more Friendsly?
I think a lot of folks came here via circuitous paths. One of the great things about this community is we help each other learn, and the learning spreads like ripples in the water. So here's to making waves!
What a journey! Welcome to this world, we have many wonderful never ending paths for learning and education. You'll be fine, just start with what you like to see and do and evolve from there.
