Hello

My name is Tracey Antee, Founder & CEO 

It all started in my parents living room over 25 years ago. My Mom was having yet another meeting about forming a nonprofit to promote and preserve Creole culture. I was about two generations younger than their audience but that gave me the ability to provide a valuable contribution to the work that was being done. 

 

Instead of the typical things teenagers do, I spent my weekends doing traveling to do research in libraries, going to grant workshops and attending and speaking at conferences while learning the value of relationship building. My mentor was my Mom, she was creating something special and viable with me trying to walk in her very big shoes. 

I have worked with nonprofits centered around cultural and historical preservation, mental health, homelessness and housing, cancer, population health and healthcare. Building, resource development and processes are what gets me going, along with a cup (or three) of coffee. I'm basically the lady version of a Jack of All Trades, hence the name Maven Consulting. I can do a lot with a little. 

I am married to my giant, 6'10", husband and Mom to two awesome young men. My oldest is a junior at LSU and the younger will graduate high school in May 2023. Almost empty nesters! My co-workers are a 90lb American Bulldog named Nova, a 25lb Frenchie named Bruno and the leader of the pack, my 6lb yorkie, Leo. They run the place around here. 

I look forward to having the opportunity to work with you and helping you grow, achieve and succeed.
