The courses spanned highly technical subjects outside my academic background, and with hundreds of thumbnails to produce, I could not spend hours teaching myself each concept. Additionally, instructors were unavailable for deep explanations, and project managers had limited capacity to walk through each topic.

Many topics also lacked existing visual references or relied on technical diagrams. The challenge was to create illustrations that were approachable, visually compelling, and conceptually accurate, while working efficiently and independently.

To accelerate the process, I used ChatGPT to break down complex concepts. This allowed me to quickly identify visual metaphors, maintain accuracy, and move forward without requiring constant stakeholder input.
