Introducing Myself: My Instructional Design Journey
Hello everyone, My name is Shruti, and I’m from India. I’m very happy and excited to be a part of this e-learning community! I see this community as a hundred helping hands supporting us on our e-learning journey. I’ve always believed in the power of teamwork, and I’m excited to now be a part of such an excellent community. I started my Instructional Design journey in 2022 and have worked on several academic projects. However, I honestly feel that I still have a lot to learn, especially when it comes to storyboarding and corporate learning modules. I look forward to getting answers to my questions and learning from all of you here. At the same time, I’m happy to share whatever I’ve learned and experienced so far. Looking forward to connecting and learning with everyone! 😊Aspiring E-Learning Designer
Hello community, my name is Reggie and I’m based in London, UK. I come from a teaching background and over the last few years I’ve developed a strong interest in e-learning and instructional design. I’m still learning and currently building my portfolio through voluntary work and personal projects using Articulate Storyline and other tools. My teaching experience helps me understand learners and how to make learning clear and engaging. I joined the E-Learning Heroes community mainly to learn from others, improve my e-learning design and Storyline skills, get new ideas and continue building a strong portfolio as I work towards moving into e-learning and instructional design.Greetings from Montreal
Hello everyone. My name is Maribel, I'm Colombian, living in Montreal. I'm new to instructional design; I literally discovered this path a month ago after being lost for almost 2 years (career-wise). I recently moved to this country, and being an immigrant is like pressing a reboot button because you have to reinvent yourself completely; at least that was my case because I'm not a conventional worker. I have worn multiple hats since I left high school, and finally I found a place where I fit with all my knowledge and passion; that place is instructional design and learning experience design. I'm super excited to navigate this path and learn from you all. Thank you.Hi, I'm Ekaterina
Hi everyone! My name is Ekaterina, and I'm currently based in Vancouver, Canada. I work as a courseware developer in the aviation industry ✈️ (I help create e-learning courses for pilots), which is how I first discovered Articulate Storyline and started using it about three years ago. Since then, I’ve learned a lot through my work projects, but I’ve also become curious to explore more advanced features and creative possibilities. That’s why I joined this community—to keep learning and share what I’ve discovered along the way. My background is in Fine Arts (I hold a BFA in Print Media), and I occasionally teach art classes for kids. I try to bring a strong design element into the courses I create, thinking of them as holistic projects where visuals, UI, and content come together seamlessly. I'm especially interested in gamification, and I've created a few small games in Articulate using different visual styles. On the personal side, my family includes my husband, our three little kids, and two cats: 👨👩👧👦👧🐈🐈Leave 2025 where it belongs.
Beyond its calm and serene energy lies great opportunity. I leveraged the color of Cloud Dancer to "check in" and gain access to fresh perspectives and opportunities that are embedded in the year ahead. I really enjoyed putting this together, and it was nice to learn and quickly apply a few new basic skills along the way.

Hi, I’m Amalia LM, based in Arizona. I’ve worked in the E-Learning space at Amazon, focusing on scalable, learner-centered training for a diverse and global audience—primarily within operations. In parallel, I’ve served in parish ministry, supporting Spanish-speaking communities through communication, formation, and outreach. These two paths—corporate learning and ministry—have helped shape how I approach instructional design with empathy, clarity, and cultural awareness. I’m passionate about creating engaging, accessible content and enjoy collaborating across teams to bring structure and meaning to the learning experience. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish and always eager to bridge gaps in understanding through thoughtful design. While I’ve gained experience in content development and learning flow, I still consider myself very much a learner. I’m here to grow in areas like interactive design, visual storytelling, and best practices with tools like Storyline and Rise. I’m grateful to be part of this community and look forward to learning from others while sharing what I can along the way.
