About Cherise Johnson

I’m a marketing strategist who thrives at the intersection of storytelling, operations, and public education.With a background in education and a Master’s in Ed, I’ve spent my career building campaigns that honor the complexity of school districts—especially the often-overlooked teams in HR, Business, IT, and Student Services who make everything work behind the scenes.At Informed K12, I lead our content and event strategy—partnering with district leaders to surface real stories, elevate their impact, and connect peers around shared operational challenges. From high-trust leadership roundtables to field-first messaging frameworks, I build programs that don’t just market a product—they build relationships, shift narratives, and drive measurable outcomes.I believe marketing in K-12 should be deeply respectful, insight-driven, and always in service of the people who serve our schools.Let’s build something real.
