About Me

Hello! I am Pooja Potdar, a lifelong learner passionate about creating engaging & accessible educational experiences. With a background in chemistry and a passion for EdTech, Since 2019, I’ve transitioned from YouTube content creator to Academic Content Writer, and now an Instructional Designer.​​​​

​

My Journey began in chemistry, earning a B.S. and M.S. in Organic Chemistry from Pune University, India. I then transitioned into eLearning and worked from simplifying complex topics for engineering and medical students to curating Alt-Text to enhance the content for visually impaired audiences. Alongside launching my YouTube channel, these experiences revealed the incredible potential of digital content, deepening my commitment to accessibility and fueling my passion for instructional design.

​

Currently, I work as an Instructional Designer II at Utah State University's College of Veterinary Medicine.  I am the college’s first dedicated instructional designer, and lead the design and development of Canvas courses and instructional resources for the newly launched Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) program. In summer'24, I interned at Altair Engineering, developing self-paced engineering courses and contributing to their AI chatbot project. I graduated with an M.S. in Instructional Design and Technology in December 2024.

​

Looking ahead, my diverse experiences keep me at the forefront of educational trends, and I’m eager to connect with others who share my focus on addressing learning needs. I live in Logan, Utah.

Let’s enhance education, one creative idea at a time.
