PORTFOLIO
Some of Julie Gillespie’s work as a strategic partner and learning experience designer
Great learning doesn’t start with content; it starts with clarity.
Even the best materials fall flat if people can’t find what they need or use it confidently. I help teams design simple, effective learning and knowledge systems that actually work.
Whether you’re building a new enablement strategy, reworking onboarding, or turning your knowledge base into a reliable go-to, I focus on creating clear, engaging, and scalable solutions that drive results.
Take a look at my work below and let’s connect.
