take the first steps toward building your organization’s content system

Hi, I’m Joey!
I have taught creative software, techniques, and strategy to hundreds of professionals through my courses at NYU and Columbia and in partnership with companies and organizations.
My classes are grounded in a 20+ year journey through film, tv, children’s media, digital learning, and nonprofit marketing.
Come get training, support, feedback, and advice from someone who understands what nonprofit communicators are up against.
Making words and pictures since this years old.
