About Jill
I’m Jill Ray, founder of Clear Path Programs. For nearly 20 years, I’ve helped organizations bring clarity and direction to their training, communications, and outreach efforts.
I’m also the author of Start Smart: Kicking Off Successful Creative Projects, a practical guide to launching creative work. I wrote the book to help teams avoid scope creep, endless revisions, and unclear expectations at the start of creative projects. The book reflects the same structured approach I bring to client projects, helping teams start initiatives with clear goals, defined roles, and a shared understanding of success.
"Jill is one of the best project managers I’ve ever worked with. She’s incredibly organized, understood our needs, and anticipated adjustments before we even had to ask. Work was always on time or ahead of schedule, and the quality was exceptional. I would work with her again in a heartbeat."
