I'm Emily Green. 15 years of behavior change and learning systems work for Apple, Airbnb, GitLab, Johnson & Johnson, T-Mobile, and Intuit. Now leading AI programs the same way. Certified Google UX professional. M.S. Instructional Design & Technology. I build the kind of AI rollouts humans actually adopt.
Before I design anything, I study how people actually behave at work. I watch. I listen. I ask the uncomfortable questions. Because the gap between what we trained them to do and what they actually do is where the real design challenge lives.
I started caboodle design because I was tired of seeing organizations pour resources into training that checked a box but never changed a behavior. My work is built on Kirkpatrick, Action Mapping, and ethnographic research applied anthropologically, not academically.
Most AI rollouts ship the tool and skip the change. I run the program around the human: where the workflow actually breaks, where staff actually resist, what makes the new behavior easier than the old one. The thinking is the job.
For organizations rolling out AI internally and looking for a behavior change lead embedded in the work.
For companies hiring an AI Program Lead where behavior change is the bottleneck, not the algorithm.
Skills, work history, education, certifications. All in one place.
I speak about behavior-focused learning design, the anthropological lens in L&D, and how to build training that actually changes what people do at work.
