DESTERY HILDENBRANDLEARNING TECHNOLOGY + DESIGNLEARNING TECHNOLOGY CONSULTANT + SPEAKER
I help organizations turn learning challenges into practical, interactive experiences—using instructional design, AI, and emerging technology with purpose.
You bring the learning challenge. I'll bring curiosity, strategy, and a willingness to build it alongside you.
20+ YEARS IN L&D • 17+ YEARS TEACHINGWHAT I DO
I bring learning strategy, design, and technology together—so the solution is useful, buildable, and grounded in how people actually learn.
For teams that need a strategic partner, a prototype, or a practical path through new learning technology.
High-energy talks and hands-on workshops for learning professionals who want more than a trend report.
FEATURED WORK
Three live examples of how I combine learning design, technology, and hands-on making. Open any project and try it for yourself.
INTERACTIVE GAME BUILD
A responsive browser arcade game that turns a sprite sheet into a polished, playable experience with touch controls, sound, and fast feedback.
CREATOR TOOL
A browser-based sprite workshop for slicing animation sheets, tuning playback, previewing frames, and exporting ready-to-use web assets.
HANDS-ON LEARNING EXPERIENCE
A 60-minute interactive session that moves learners from AI fundamentals to practical prompts, useful workflows, and one action they can apply immediately.
ENTER THE GAME HUB
The Destery1Kenobi Game Hub is where experiments become playable. Explore original browser games, chase high scores, and see what hands-on creation looks like in action.
ON STAGE + IN THE ROOM
My sessions blend clear strategy, live demonstrations, and hands-on creation. Participants leave with something they understand because they made it themselves.

THE SHORT VERSION
I've spent more than 20 years helping people learn—and 17+ of those years teaching.
I understand the strategy conversation and the reality of making the thing. That means starting with the learning need, choosing technology on purpose, and getting to something people can actually use.
