Learning Designer & Mentor

Opening Doors to independence, critical thinking, and real-world exploration

Peter Pielaet-Strayer

I'm a learning designer and mentor with a passion for creating educational experiences that empower growth and curiosity.

My background in education and technology has taught me that the best learning happens when we open doors: to independence, to critical thinking, and to real-world exploration.

Currently, I'm pursuing a Master's in Learning Design and Technology at the University of San Diego, where I'm developing new approaches to educational technology and instructional design.

This portfolio documents my journey and showcases projects that reflect my commitment to meaningful, accessible learning for all.
