Jonathan Zalman

As a Pulitzer Prize-nominated marketing leader skilled in leveraging AI technology, I specialize in driving business outcomes, establishing brand awareness, and engaging diverse audiences across digital and legacy channels. With a proven track record in hyper-growth environments, I excel in building high-performing teams and telling compelling stories that establish authority for technology companies, particularly in cybersecurity and intelligence sectors. Prior to joining Flashpoint, worked primarily as a journalist, editor, and adjunct professor for more than a decade — reporting breaking stories about chess, Jewish life, and the Middle East for global publications to stories for blogs about small local businesses and events. I also worked as a long-time professor — first in Fuzhou, China, and then in Dobbs Ferry along the Hudson River and Manhattan. high-performance marketing, hyper-growth, cool under pressure, hitting deadlines, ghost writing, mentorship, organic content, editorial management, chess, marketing communications, campaigns, email marketing, public relations, strategic communications, thought leadership, digital marketing, b2b, press releases, cybersecurity, project management, technology, copywriting, strategic planning, social media marketing, content marketing, content strategy, management, leadership, social media strategy, brand awareness, blogging, investigative reporting, integrated marketing, journalism, educator, search engine optimization (SEO), corporate communications, instructor, growth marketing, TEFL, headlines, ad copy, marketing strategy, risk intelligence, product marketing, profile writing, go-to-market, software, ghost writing, chess, editing, leadership, empathy, media relations, public relations, technology, startups, storytelling, fact-checking, university teaching, public speaking, course design and development, AP style, copy editing, creative writing, narrative non-fiction, style guide
