Nora is hands down, by far, the best instructional designer I have ever had the pleasure of working with. I like to think of myself as highly skilled in this area but Nora can run rings round me and has taught me more about instructional design than she has forgotten. The most extraordinary thing about Nora, however, is that she is so much more than just an amazing instructional designer. Nora is what some refer to as a "Purple Unicorn" - a highly talented professional whose abilities are not limited to one or 2 areas of expertise. She also brings a talent for "graphic design" and animation to the table, a huge asset for any instructional designer and the primary reason I hired her for the role at Conde, but I'm not finished yet! Did I mention Nora is also a highly skilled in-person classroom trainer and facilitator who designs her own course content? OK, I think you're getting the "Purple Unicorn" description a little better now. I highly recommend Nora to any company seeking a highly experienced, multi-talented Learning & Development professional who can literally do it all, but I suggest you make it fast or I will have hired her already :)
