About Michelle Tackabery

I am a digital asset management and metadata specialist with 10+ years of experience helping organizations transform scattered content into structured, searchable, and AI-ready assets. My work sits at the intersection of DAM platforms, metadata and taxonomy design, and emerging AI technologies, enabling teams to move faster while maintaining governance and compliance.In my current and prior roles, I have designed and maintained enterprise taxonomies, metadata schemas, and controlled vocabularies for large creative and archival collections. I have led ingest and migration workflows across platforms such as Adobe Experience Manager Assets as a Cloud Service, Amazon S3, Backblaze, SharePoint, Google Drive, Dropbox, and Bynder, ensuring assets are consistently tagged, discoverable, and aligned with business use cases.I bring an AI-forward perspective to knowledge management: training and tuning smart-tagging models, testing agentic-AI workflows for DAM use cases, and building knowledge graphs to support more intelligent content discovery and reuse. I also research and document generative AI and agentic AI models, ethics, and corporate use cases, providing clear guidance to marketing and communications teams on when and how to integrate these tools into their workflows.Earlier in my career, I worked as a data librarian and graduate assistant, where I applied formal archival, preservation, and cataloging practices to complex historical and community-driven collections. That foundation in library science, combined with real-world DAM implementation, allows me to bridge rigorous information science principles with the practical needs of modern digital teams.I’m based in Atlanta, GA and work effectively with distributed and hybrid teams. I’m especially interested in roles focused on digital asset management, metadata and taxonomy strategy, knowledge graphs, and AI-assisted content operations where I can help organizations improve asset findability, reduce time-to-market, and prepare their content ecosystems for AI.
