    Eric Nalian

    Eric Nalian can take any topic and construct an engaging learning experience around it. His courses always start with a doodle on a whiteboard and end with a satisfied learner! To develop these courses, Articulate Storyline is primarily used along with PowerPoint and Photoshop.
