Call me Gwen

Welcome to my work.  

A window into who I am and what I do. 



Words that influence my work.

"The journey starts where the learner is now and ends when the learner is successful, (however that is defined). The end of the journey isn't just knowing more, it's doing more."

Main Function as a learning developer is: "ruthless mangagement of cognitive load"

-Julie Dirksen, Design For How People Learn

"People need to understand failure NOT as a signal of limitations but as a gateway to further growth." -Peter Brown, Make It Stick

"The process of reflection on an idea and testing it advances our understanding and learning"-Tom Kuhlmann, Articulate

"Tell me and I'll forget.  Show me and I may remember.  Involve me and I learn." -Benjamin Franklin

"I don't know what I'm doing yet. It's only a matter of time until I figure it out."  Believe in your ability to learn. Growth Mindset             -Adam Grant, LinkedIn


Words that influence my life

"Do small things with great love" -Mother Theresa

"If you wait until you feel ready to take on a new challenge, you might never pursue it at all.  Few people wake up suddenly feeling prepared to lead or create.  They become prepared by taking the leap anyway.  Our greatest regrets are not our failures, but our failures to try." -unknown

"Don't be afraid; Just believe"-Jesus
