About Commissioned for Christ

I was and still am a dedicated Fred Hammond fan so in 2003 when I was thinking of names for a Graphic Design business, I put both of Fred Hammond's group names: Commissioned and Radical for Christ and thus Commissioned for Christ Graphics and Design was born! Commissioned for Christ provided affordable graphic design to friends, family, Churches, Small Businesses, and Funeral Homes. As much as I enjoyed it, I ended up spending more time doing the business stuff than actually doing graphic design. And while it was successful, I found my self returning to the corporate world in 2006 . I eventually dissolved the business in 2008, but continued to provide assistance for family and friends in dire need as I was able. 

But once again, I'm in a place in my life where I'm able to minister to individuals and families in need in various capacities beyond just Graphic Design and I wanted to create a website where people could have a snapshot of all the ways God has blessed me to be a blessing to others. 

The tagline back then was Reflecting His Excellence and that hasn't changed, as I move forward endeavoring to be a blessing to others in various ways, thus continuing to do my best, to offer a reflection of the excellence of God, in all that I do.
