Professional Work – Michael Prinkey

Overview

Throughout my career, I have operated at a Director level, balancing creative output with rigorous project oversight. My expertise lies in the intersection of marketing, online learning, and systems administration. I am equally comfortable as a strategic leader guiding a team’s collective output or contributing as a creator. I pride myself on not just imagining the "what," but building the operational "how" through robust process administration.

Learning Program Management & L&D Systems

I have four years of experience in learning and development roles. In my most recent position, I served as a Learning Program Manager within an organization that did not yet have an established learning department.

Within a year and a half, I built the learning program from the ground up. Due to the organization’s early-stage structure, I was responsible for both program management and sole course development.

This Work Included

1. Establishing the learning program structure and workflows. (5 year plan)

2. Implementing and administering a learning management system.

3. Designing and developing course content and learning materials.

4. Managing timelines, priorities, and delivery.

5. Coordinating with a freelance graphic designer to support visuals.

6. Supporting course launch and ongoing system maintenance.

Summary

This work established a fully functional Learning & Development program where none had previously existed at DarkSky International. In prior roles, I led the rollout of point-of-sale (POS) and HRIS systems training across 400+ Big 5 Sporting Goods stores, and developed and delivered sales and technical training for 40+ Living Spaces locations.

Marketing Operations & Content Delivery

I have four years of experience in marketing operations and content delivery roles. Alongside marketing and content responsibilities, I supported project coordination and administrative functions to maintain scope, timelines, and follow-through.

This Work Included

1. Supported marketing and communications teams through high-volume content production and delivery, contributing to the release of 150+ completed video assets over the course of my career.

2. Managed production workflows, schedules, revisions, and approvals to ensure assets were delivered accurately and on time.

3. Frequently assumed responsibility for project organization and scope control due to inconsistent leadership oversight.

4. Supported digital initiatives by coordinating requirements, timelines, and handoffs between stakeholders.

5. Ensured consistency and reliability across deliverables in fast-paced, under-documented environments.
