Working with Joe Cilli has been one of the highlights of my career. Together, we teamed up to produce educational videos and online coursework. During our collaboration, I learned a tremendous amount about how learning can be augmented by video and animation. In addition to being knowledgeable about LMS development and educational content production, Joe excels in his ability to stay up to speed with today’s rapidly advancing educational technologies.
