Who We Are
Golden Interactive Media is a small, woman-owned business founded by Lisa Golden in 2006.
Lisa Golden, President
Lisa has extensive experience planning and implementing enterprise-level web-based training initiatives for global audiences. In addition to a background in writing and teaching, she has 10 years of experience in multimedia development and programming, including four years in management roles.
Because she has worked in content, design, technical, and business roles herself, Lisa is able to bring a holistic view to any media development project. Her talent is in orchestrating textual, visual, auditory, and interactive elements to teach, inform, appeal to, excite, and satisfy an audience. [More]
Lisa was previously Manager of Media Solutions at Crawford and Associates International, a Palo Alto-based company focused on corporate training and change management. When Crawford and Associates announced its decision to close its doors at the end of 2006, Lisa formed Golden Interactive Media in order to continue work in the eLearning industry independently.
Besides developing corporate training, Lisa has also created interactive courseware for K-12 students, written and edited award-winning marketing collateral, served as managing editor of a national literary magazine, taught writing, and developed commercial websites for online retailers. Her diverse, hands-on background gives her a unique perspective with the ability to align technical, creative, and instructional efforts for the best end product to meet business needs. [Less]
Terry Toyama, Producer
Terry Toyama brings 15 years of experience in illustration and information design to her role as Producer. Terry joined Golden Interactive Media in 2008 to manage multimedia project teams and provide graphic design leadership.
Terry’s creative and detail-oriented approach ensures that her projects have strong visual appeal and are impeccably executed, and that clients and project teams stay well informed. [More]
Terry began her career as a medical illustrator, a role which allowed her to apply her natural talents in understanding technical subject matter and communicating visually with artistry and accuracy.
Her work with medical-related educational materials soon brought her into the larger field of educational media, producing web-based training courses for a wide variety of corporate clients in the San Francisco Bay Area and Silicon Valley. She has developed highly interactive and engaging online courses on topics ranging from business ethics to networking hardware. Working with many Fortune 500 clients, she has also gained a wealth of experience in corporate communications and branding.
Besides developing corporate training and communications, Terry has also developed online games and animations for high school students, and kiosk-based public education. [Less]
