Portfolio · Liz Linares · Learning Strategist & Experience Architect

Designing experiences that help people feel capable.

I combine how people learn, how they think, and what experience has taught me — to design tools teams reach for when conversations get hard.

Selected Systems

A short look at what I’ve actually shipped — onboarding for new hires, practice for the conversations that matter, and support built into the tools people already use.

Practice

Five disciplines, one connected practice.

Learning strategy, onboarding, practice design, in-workflow tools, and AI — built together, so teams ramp faster and hold up in the moments that actually matter.

01

Strategic Learning Architecture

I start from the business — the outcomes, the roles, the signals leaders actually need to see. The LMS comes last, if it shows up at all.

02

Immersive Onboarding

Getting new hires to confident — not just compliant — across regions, tools, and time zones.

03

Participatory Practice

Scenario reps that build judgment for the real customer moments. Practice — not another content library.

04

Workflow & Enablement Design

Help built into the tools people already use — so it shows up at the decision, not buried in a course they have to remember to open.

05

AI as a Capability Layer

I use AI to support the person, not stand in for them. Helpful where it helps. Quiet where it shouldn't be in the room.
