About Zachary Metcalfe

I wrote my first short story for my freshman English class in high school, and yes, it was terrible. I realized that I enjoyed writing, and I\'ve wanted to work in content creation ever since. Content strategy and information architecture are my passions. I have written content governance guidelines, Drupal 10 training guides, content development frameworks, and content migration plans for private companies as well as several government agencies. I have even written about the importance of content migration strategy when migrating to Drupal 10. My specialties include: Human Centered Design Information Architecture and Taxonomies Content Migration Strategy Content Management Frameworks and Style Guides Content Evaluation, Planning, and Governance
