About Mary Jamis

M Creative is a values-driven strategic communications firm that helps visionary organizations grow, become stronger, and do more good for more people. We do that through informed strategies, distinctive identities, and persuasive narratives that are guided by core values and lead to meaningful and lasting audience engagement. M Creative services include strategy development, positioning, messaging, copy writing and design, communication, and implementation. We work almost exclusively with nonprofit clients-concentrating our work in education, healthcare and philanthropy. In April 2015, M Creative received certification as a B Corporation, making it the only company in central North Carolina to achieve B Corp status. As a Certified B Corporation, M Creative voluntarily meets a higher standard of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability. Before joining M Creative in January 2003, Mary was Director of Communications at Salem Academy and College and spent thirteen years at Long Haymes Carr Advertising (now Mullen). Mary has successfully led marketing and design efforts for major foundation and education clients, as well as statewide, regional and national non-profit organizations. Mary attended Hiram College (OH) and Roosevelt University (Chicago) before earning a Ph.D. in Cognitive Psychology from Kent State University.
