Anna McHugh is a taxonomist and information architect for Red Hat, and she is committed to making metadata and taxonomy tags hip and relevant. In her 10 years as a member of Red Hat’s content team, Anna built a metadata system. At first, the tags were for auditing, finding, and labeling content on the company website. Headed into 2026, high-quality tags and metadata are essential for dynamic content experiences, personalization, and content curation. A word nerd at heart, Anna works closely with creators to build, govern, and use labeling systems that are essential for connecting people with meaningful, valuable content.
