Dustin Shell

People, learning, and technology… in that order. He loves combining these to help people do their best work and fulfill their personal and collective potential.

Dustin’s career started with a B.A. in Music Composition and a job as the Multimedia Manager at Cincinnati Christian University – where he developed a sense of aesthetics and design with a bias towards achieving an emotional response to create intellectual arousal.

He then explored counseling where he learned the art and science of building trust and helping others navigate the human experience. This shaped his ability to create environments conducive to individual creativity and team collaboration.

It was at the University of Cincinnati where Dustin fell in love with learning technologies. While working towards his master’s in Instructional Design and Technology, Dustin helped nurses experiment with emerging technologies in online learning environments, designed and researched the impact of collaborative learning spaces, and developed cutting edge physical and virtual simulations.

Today, he specializes in mobile learning strategy, implementing enterprise social intranets, and gamifying learning environments to improve engagement in the workplace.
