Hi, I'm Chariese Rider—an Instructional Designer, Multimedia Developer, and Graphic Designer with more than 20 years of experience creating visual solutions that connect with audiences. My professional background began in print and marketing design, where I developed branding, promotional materials, and communication campaigns for businesses and community organizations.
Today, I combine that creative foundation with graduate-level expertise in instructional design and educational technology to develop engaging learning experiences that inform, inspire, and drive results. My work blends instructional strategy, visual design, eLearning development, video production, and interactive media to transform complex information into meaningful learning opportunities.
Through tools such as Adobe Captivate, Premiere Pro, Photoshop, Genially, and learning management systems, I create learner-centered solutions that are both visually compelling and instructionally effective. Whether designing an eLearning course, developing multimedia content, or crafting a training experience, my goal is to make learning accessible, engaging, and impactful.
I believe great design is more than aesthetics—it is purposeful communication that helps people understand, grow, and succeed. This portfolio showcases selected projects that reflect my passion for creativity, innovation, and lifelong learning. Welcome, and thank you for taking the time to explore my work.
