about me 

For more than 30 years, I’ve helped organizations look better, communicate clearly, and engage their communities with purpose.

As a Visual Communications & Community Engagement Professional, I work at the intersection of design, strategy, and impact — helping nonprofits, small businesses, ministries, and social change initiatives present their work in ways that inspire trust, participation, and results.

Through my firm, Mack Enterprises Unlimited, I provide graphic design, communications consulting, and event management services that strengthen visibility and advance missions. Over the past two decades, I’ve partnered with hundreds of organizations to elevate their presence through:

• Strategic visual branding
• Communications planning & messaging
• Event management & program development
• Select grant writing support & resource development
• Community awareness campaigns

 

My work is rooted in the belief that strong communication builds strong communities.

Creator & Publisher

I am the Creator/Publisher of “The Roads We've Traveled”, a Black history digital and print book series highlighting stories that deserve to be remembered, preserved, and shared. The project currently includes five volumes and continues to grow.

Licensed Merchandiser

I am proud to be the first official licensed merchandiser for the National Council of Negro Women (NCNW), the 90-year-old organization founded by Dr. Mary McLeod Bethune.  I also provide branded merchandise for several other national and local organizations, with this area of work continuing to grow.
