Journey Mapping Instructor
Previously led content operations for a mid-size software company, rebuilding its buyer journey map twice after major product shifts. Focuses the mapping module on keeping stage definitions honest rather than aspirational.
The people behind the training
Background, not biography
None of the instructors arrived at strategy through a single path. Some started as reporters, others as in-house writers asked to prove their work mattered. That range shapes how the sessions are taught: less theory, more of the specific moments where writing had to become something bigger.
Lead Instructor, Content Strategy Curriculum
Spent close to a decade moving between newsroom desks and in-house marketing teams before focusing on training. Built the original gap-analysis worksheet used across every cohort after noticing how often writers were asked to "think more strategically" without ever being shown what that meant in practice. Teaches the diagnostic and measurement modules.

Came from an editorial audit background, cataloguing years of unlabeled archives for publishers. Brings a practical, almost forensic approach to spotting where content coverage quietly falls apart.
Worked alongside marketing operations teams building attribution models. Teaches participants to build measurement frameworks that survive scrutiny from analytics-minded stakeholders.
Spent years presenting content performance to finance and executive audiences. Focuses on translating strategy work into revenue-adjacent language without overstating what the data supports.
How the team works together
Each cohort works with all four instructors across the program rather than a single generalist trainer. The reasoning is straightforward: gap analysis, journey mapping, measurement, and stakeholder communication are different disciplines, and each benefits from someone who has actually practiced it under real constraints.
