    Melissa Jordan

    I have been with Ferguson for 15 years, starting as a Technical Writer, jumping into the Team Lead role of our eLearning Development team, and later taking on the role as an Instructional Designer. I love the chance to be creative and look for ways to make learning engaging and fun.
