About
I'm Jacob Palenske, and I'm the President and CEO of NCompass Media, a Dallas-based converged media company. I instruct and speak at scholastic journalism conventions and workshops across the nation and in Europe, and I work as a media, branding, marketing and communication consultant.
I co-directed the 2006 JEA Austria and 2007 ATPI/TAJE European Exposure workshops, and the 2008, 2009 and 2011 European Exposure photography workshops. I've been a featured instructor at the Columbia Scholastic Press Association fall, spring and summer workshops, the Carolina Journalism Institute, the Association of Texas Photography Instructors summer workshop, the Gloria Shields All-American Publications Workshop, the Flint Hills Publications Workshop at Kansas State University, and the summer high school program at The Poynter Institute.
I recently received my first professional citation, the Southern Interscholastic Press Association’s Elizabeth B. Dickey Distinguished Service Award.
