Portrait of Justin Hyatt

Hello. I'm Justin Hyatt.

<-------- X -------->

Learning Strategist + Systems Builder.

I design learning and organizational systems that actually make sense to the people using them.

How I Think

  • Simplicity > Complexity. If something is hard to use, it isn't finished.
  • Programs, courses, and systems are for the people that use them. Design in ways that put people first.
  • The way people learn changes; so should the way we teach.
  • Build for adaptability, not longevity.

What I Do

  • I fix broken processes that waste time, energy, and money.
  • I design learning opportunities, systems, workflows, and tools that create opportunity instead of additional friction.
  • I take complicated information and make it accessible.
  • I build things that work... in a way that makes sense to the people that use them.

My Background

Workforce Development

Program Strategy
6 yrs
Learning Design
10 yrs
Systems Design
4 yrs
Emerging Technologies
4 yrs
Adult Learning
12 yrs

My background spans adult education, workforce development, and organizational systems, and my work is shaped by over 12 years of direct experience with learners across New York City.

I started in the classroom. GED instruction, HSE programs, transition-age youth, adult learners from every background and ability level. That direct experience allowed me to understand how real people learn, struggle, and grow, and it is the foundation everything else is built on.

It's what made me a better designer, a better strategist, and ultimately, the person organizations bring in when they need systems that actually work for the people using them.
