Portrait of Kyle Bartz

I grew up in Milwaukee loving music and recording, and that turned into a degree in Audio Engineering from Full Sail University. I got my start in a Chicago studio, Rax Trax Recording, as an assistant engineer, tracking and mixing vocals.

Before moving into instructional design I spent eight years at Apple in Milwaukee, first as a Specialist and then as a Creative. I walked customers through setting up their devices, led one-to-many sessions, and delivered live product demonstrations. That is where I learned to explain complicated tools to people at every level.

Since 2020 I've designed training for adult and enterprise audiences at Whole Foods Market, Google, Apple, and now TaskUs, an Austin company I work for remotely from Milwaukee, from interactive eLearning built in Rise and Storyline 360 to video, audio, and live instruction.

Outside of client work I build things for practice and for fun: this site, a macOS app for organizing a movie and TV library, a music player with calibrated meters, and a hidden arcade game. You'll find the write-ups on the projects page.
