Executive Value Proposition

Curriculum & Language Program Leader

I am a curriculum and language education leader with 10+ years of experience designing and scaling post-secondary and national learning systems for multilingual learners. My expertise focuses on CEFR and CLB-aligned curriculum design, assessment systems, and program development across EAP, ESL, and interdisciplinary academic pathways.

I specialize in translating language proficiency frameworks into scalable curriculum and assessment systems that strengthen instructional consistency, learner progression, and program quality. My work extends beyond course design into program architecture, instructional systems, and cross-institutional alignment.

I have led curriculum initiatives at institutional and national levels. This includes eCampus-funded development of three Computer Science pathway courses in partnership with Algoma University and Northern College, supporting inter-institutional alignment and student progression.

At a national scale, I led the design of a Moodle-based assessor training platform supporting 50+ language assessment centres, standardizing training delivery and ensuring consistency in assessment practices across a distributed network.
Within Ontario post-secondary institutions, I have coordinated instructional design across Business, IT, and multi-campus programs, focusing on curriculum alignment, assessment consistency, and program quality across departments.

My approach is grounded in systems thinking, evidence-based curriculum design, and collaborative leadership with faculty and stakeholders. I focus on building sustainable curriculum and assessment frameworks that improve both instructional quality and learner outcomes.

I am particularly effective in roles requiring curriculum leadership across programs and institutions, especially in multilingual and academic English contexts where alignment, consistency, and scalability are essential.
