Margot Knorr Mancini, President & General Manager

“Working with publishing companies at many  levels for over twenty years has given me the benefit of truly understanding the requirements of a successful publishing operation and emerging trends in publishing. I’ve had the opportunity to have a hands-on role in many aspects of publishing, as well as senior-leadership roles in large consulting practices, working with teams to make implementations successful. We know what it takes to build the appropriate processes, implement the most efficient tools, and facilitate strategic vision and change in a variety of publishing cultures.”

Cheryl Asselin, Director, Client Services

“After spending many years working with publishing systems as a Managing Editor, process/technology evangelist, and Editorial Systems Manager, it’s very rewarding to bring my expertise to other publishers and help them to achieve results in their publishing operations. Bridging the gap of change with technology, process and support allows us to effectively help many publishers , large or small, young or established, to experience growth and success.”

Stephanie Brockway, Creative Director

“My background as a Creative Director and hands-on technical user of publishing systems and process provides me with a great basis upon which to work with fellow publishing users to help them understand and embrace how to create content effectively in today’s evolving publishing world. The new tools and trends we are seeing bring exciting opportunities to designers more than ever before. “

Monica Murphy, Publishing Applications Consultant

“Solving the puzzle of how to use publishing tools effectively to create content without redundant effort is key to how I work with our clients. Keeping up on the current features and functions in available tool sets, and how to best apply them in everyday practice, is the foundation for streamlining publishing process. My work with multiple publications over the years provides me with a broad spectrum of requirements and approaches to draw on when I work with a new client.

Caitlin Wood, Marketing Manager

“Technology for Publishing is clearly a leader in the publishing industry, helping publishers work better and smarter. We have a unique opportunity to capture and share our knowledge with a larger audience. My work at TFP will help to provide greater visibility and recognition for what we have to offer, and will hopefully allow us to reach and educate a wider range of publishers than we have to date.”

Donna Slawsky, Taxonomist-at-Large

“Assisting publishers and other content creators as a taxonomist and metadata consultant for many years has allowed me to work with many clients including Time, InStyle, Entertainment Weekly, Real Simple, Cooking Light,  Southern Living, WeightWatchers.com and United Media (where I created a DAM taxonomy for Charles Shulz’ Peanuts character art).  Working with clients and their content allows me to really help them understand how an effective taxonomy can make or break content success.”

Cheryl Slowik, Sales & Product Manager

“A large part of my role involves educating clients about how we can help with best practices, tools, and technologies. My hands-on experience as a designer and project manager has allowed me to understand the challenges and opportunities faced by publishers, and I draw from this in guiding prospective clients through our offerings and in defining our new products.”
