Hello

I’m Niels Myrner, an Instructional Designer and E-Learning Developer based in San Francisco. I’m passionate about learning and I enjoy working at the intersection of creativity and technology.

I have eight years of e-learning development experience and fifteen years of experience teaching music to adults. My design process is guided by learner empathy and business results.

I value integrity, compassion, a strong work ethic and commitment to constant evolution. In my free time, I enjoy learning new technologies. I develop content for an online drum lesson website and YouTube channel. I thrive on creativity and hard work. My wife and I enjoy staying healthy through outdoor adventures.
