Tresa Chambers

Tresa Chambers (Col ’89 CM) has launched Mawu Greetings, a line of culturally inclusive greeting cards and stationery derived from her vision to live in a world where there are no more starving artists. She is especially focused on elevating the personal and collective economies of Black and Brown artists. Mawu Greetings will feature designs from those artists and will provide a chance for customers to learn more about the artists by producing and hosting virtual and in-person events to connect more deeply with the artists’ brands and works and to be a part of a community with a shared vision.

As a brand marketer and publishing strategist, Chambers has been working with authors, artists, and thought leaders in nonprofit, tech, and higher education. She launched her own business nearly two years ago providing consulting services.

She is seeking new small business customers who are aligned with her vision of social enterprise, as well as collaboration and sponsorship of events. She continues to support authors via a weekly virtual event on LinkedIn, “About My Book Business,” which is available for replay on YouTube, and is seeking guests for the next season. She welcomes calls or emails from authors and publishing experts among UVA alumni.
