Author Information

Emily Wood’s passion is sharing knowledge with learners on any topic. It started at an early age, when she would help her father build presentations for his medical conferences. One of her favorite games to play as a child was “Respi-baby”—a simulation game for neonatologists on infant respiration therapy. Her dad liked to joke that if his 10-year-old could save the babies, the medical students working for him should be able to as well. Emily is one of the many e-learning developers who found herself doing this job by taking on another project on a completely different career path. Origi-nally she planned on working in market research and found herself creating marketing materials with instructional videos. During that time, she earned a master’s degree in instructional science and technology at night. She then went on to work for the federal government, a startup, a museum, and sever-al nonprofit organizations. She enjoys working with animals, having volunteered in equine- and dog-assisted therapy. She is a classical bassist and has performed in several community orchestras and musicals. She travels extensively and tries to learn about the languages and cultures wherever she goes. Emily has enjoyed living all over the United States. She spent her childhood moving progressively eastward. As an adult, she’s been discovering the U.S. coasts. She resides in Portland, Oregon, with her lab, George.
