About Proud Marketing

Led by Mandi Hawke — strategist, storyteller, and print shop kid turned ethical marketer.

From design to recruiting, our team offers human-first support for growing healthcare practices.

Built on Ink, Integrity, and Intention

I grew up in my family’s print shop, where I learned early that design isn’t just about looking good — it’s about being clear, intentional, and deeply human.

By middle school, I was experimenting with QuarkXPress and Photoshop. By my twenties, I was building messaging that moved people. And for over 20 years now, I’ve helped nonprofits, wellness providers, and purpose-led entrepreneurs show up with confidence and care.

In 2020, like so many, I lost the job I loved — and turned my graphic design side hustle into a calling.

I built Proud Marketing to offer something better than business-as-usual marketing.

Because marketing shouldn’t feel gross.

It should feel like you.

Rooted in story. Backed by strategy. Designed to last.
