Kind words
“
Machere took what we were trying to say and made it impossible to ignore. Same mission, way louder voice — and people finally started listening.
“
She gets people. Every event, every message, every detail felt personal — guests left feeling like they were part of something, not just attendees.
“
Our program had heart but no plan. Machere built us a story, a strategy and a rollout that made families excited to show up and stay.
Hi, I'm Machere.
I've spent 20+ years telling stories for a living, in newsrooms, PR, school communications, esports and education programs. Wherever I go, I end up doing the same thing: bringing people together and helping them be seen. I hold an M.A. in New Media Journalism from Full Sail University and a B.A. in Public Relations from Saint Augustine's University, and I'm finishing my MBA in Marketing. Proud member of NABJ and PRSA. Based in the DC area.
