Who We Are

One Nine exists to create more than just wedding stationery and signage. We create beautifully lettered products for clients in every season of life and for any occasion. Living in Tulsa, OK, I was inspired by both my pastor and the entrepreneurial spirit of the historic Greenwood District’s Black Wall Street to start One Nine Lettering Co. It is said that within Greenwood every dollar would change hands 19 times before it left the community. With no black-owned calligraphy companies in the area, it was time to start this business because… all I have, is all I need!

I have always been a “doodler”, drawing on notepads, napkins, and scraps of paper while talking on the phone or doing some other task. That trend continued throughout school and into adulthood. While volunteering to do lettering projects, I discovered quickly that I loved creating and designing. After a lot of prayer, and of course lettering some of my favorite passages in the margins of my Bible, I took a leap of faith and launched One Nine.

I’ve come to learn that whether it’s an event or the decor in a space, to make it stand out it's truly all about the details. I take great joy in getting to know my clients, and creating something that captures their unique vision. So, thank you for stopping by and please take a look around. I would love to help you make your project uniquely yours.
