Hello
A Bit About Me
My name is Christopher Swift, and I have completed the M.S. in E-Learning Design & Technology program at the University of South Florida (July 2024). With over 25 years of experience in higher education technology, I have dedicated my career to advancing digital learning environments and supporting faculty in leveraging technology to enhance educational outcomes.
At my last role as a Technology Manager at St. Petersburg College, I lead a team of technologists who are responsible for the implementation and integration of our Learning Management System (LMS) and other critical educational technologies. My team and I worked closely with faculty to navigate these systems, providing training and guidance on best practices to ensure effective and innovative use of technology in teaching and learning.
Beyond my professional achievements, I have a deep passion for digital media and music. Earlier in my career, I wrote and produced music under a private record label, blending my technical expertise with creative expression. This fusion of technology and artistry has been a recurring theme throughout my career, driving my interest in content creation and digital storytelling.
In addition to my technological pursuits, I once competed in beach volleyball tournaments across the country, aspiring to become a professional player. This experience honed my competitive spirit and quick decision-making abilities, qualities that have proven invaluable in my professional life.
My journey through the Learning Design & Technology program has been transformative, providing me with advanced knowledge and skills in educational technology and instructional design. It has broadened my perspective on the role of technology in education and equipped me with the tools to create impactful learning experiences.
Looking ahead, I am excited to continue growing in the field of technology, integrating my newfound skills and insights into future projects. My goal is to innovate and contribute to the development of cutting-edge educational technologies that enhance learning and teaching.
