Global onboarding programmes often struggle with a fundamental tension: they need to deliver a consistent experience while feeling personal and relevant to each new joiner. The brief was to create a distinctive visual world that would make onboarding memorable — and feel like something genuinely worth spending time with.

The solution was an archipelago of eight islands — Volcanic, Polar, Archaeological, Animal, Manmade, Tropical, Urban, and Tech — each mapped to a real geographic location across the four regions.

Each island was delivered as an interactive e-learning module built in Articulate Rise, all housed within a custom SharePoint hub. A cast of characters, a system of illustrated environments, and a guided narrative structure transformed what could have been a tedious process into something genuinely engaging.

Expedia Group needed to build meaningful AI literacy across thousands of employees — from leadership to front-line teams. The programme covered GenAI basics, large language models, and how to use these tools effectively in their roles.

The brief required both a strong visual identity and learning experiences that felt genuinely engaging — not another compliance module.

I developed a universe and stars visual identity for the programme — deep space photography, an immersive dark palette, and a sense of scale and possibility that immediately set the tone for the learning experience.

Where Articulate Rise couldn't go far enough, I built what was needed. Using GitHub Copilot alongside my own working knowledge of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, I created three custom interactive components that extended the platform beyond its standard capabilities.

These included two parallax scroll experiences — full-bleed photography that stays fixed as text slides over it, creating a cinematic depth effect — and a horizontal card carousel that let learners explore use cases in a more engaging, interactive way.
