“I first had the pleasure of learning from Devolina as a student at IDOL Academy, where she served as one of my facilitators and evaluators. In this role, she expertly delivered training on a range of instructional design topics and provided meticulous evaluations of our work. I was immediately impressed by Devolina's profound knowledge and skill. Whether leading a technical workshop on Articulate Storyline or giving detailed feedback on a storyboard, she possessed a rare ability to combine patient, nurturing guidance with a consistent expectation for excellence.


Our professional relationship has since evolved, and I now have the privilege of serving as Devolina's intern, supporting her in the design and development of a new course on AI for instructional designers. The dynamic of giving feedback to my former evaluator could have been challenging, but Devolina's character made the transition seamless. She is remarkably receptive to constructive feedback, innately collaborative, and constantly seeking opportunities for improvement. This experience revealed to me that these very qualities—her humility and her drive—are what made her such an effective mentor in the first place.


My time with Devolina, first as a student and now as her colleague, has been invaluable. She has taught me not only the technical practices of instructional design but also the essential qualities of a successful practitioner. Devolina leads by example, demonstrating a humble yet persistent pursuit of excellence in everything she does. Any team would be fortunate to have a colleague with Devolina's talent, integrity, and commitment to excellence; I recommend her wholeheartedly.”
