Training & Documentation

SOPs, onboarding guides, and job aids built for real teams — five years doing it professionally at scale, plus three volunteer programs still running on the same discipline today.

Documentation people actually use — because it's written for someone stressed and in a hurry, not for a binder nobody opens.

  • SOPs and onboarding guides tested on someone who's never done the task before they ship
  • Job aids built for the worst day on the floor, not the demo
  • Full training program design — not just a slide deck and a hope
  • Systems that keep new hires productive whether or not I'm in the room
