Arisme Designs 

Who Am I? 

Hi! My name is Arlene. I am a Brooklyn, NY native of Haitian-American descent. Since living Upstate, NY I have found peace in nature, stillness, and nurturing genuine connections. I am dedicated to cultivating a life that centers pure joy. 

A few years ago during a significant world shift that our generation will never forget, I began reflecting on the gaps between the life I wanted and the life I had. I began to deeply reflect on my health, wellness, flexibility, time for connection to my loved ones, and how my career fit in. I then analyzed my current and past professional and volunteer experiences. I reflected on each experience and identified common aspects of the work that I loved. I essentially completed a needs analysis to identify the missing piece. It was INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN! 

I realized that I have always been the most fulfilled during the spans of my career focused on identifying training needs, training development, and training others. However, there was always a feeling of wanting to dig deeper and have a larger framework to operate from. I am ecstatic to have found and transitioned into a career in Instructional Design. 

As an instructional designer with a strong foundation in behavioral psychology, I bring a unique blend of expertise to the table. I have cross-industry experience that includes employee training, facilitation, leading teams, DEIB, quality assurance, organizational development and mental health counseling. My design process is not just a process; it's a journey that starts with understanding your organization inside and out. 

I am a strong rapport builder who values clear and direct communication. I am committed to designing and developing learning solutions that are intentional and learner-centric. 

I'm here to create more than just learning materials; I'm here to craft transformational experiences. My approach combines the best of ADDIE, SAM, and backward design to ensure your learners are not just engaged but empowered to excel.

Let's collaborate to design tailored, effective, and engaging learning solutions that align perfectly with your organization's goals and culture. Together, we can make learning an inspiring journey.
