OUR PURPOSE & PASSION

We clarify your message and use design to tell your story to scale your business and grow your community.

Who We Are...
HAVEN CREATIVE is a team of passionate creative marketing professionals (Mavens) dedicated to growing brands through integrated marketing solutions. We offer a combination of research, strategy, creativity and action.

How it all began...
After relocating to the Charlotte area from Los Angeles, Jeni Bukolt started Haven Creative in the fall of 2012. Building upon her 15+ years of professional experience in marketing, communications, and branding, Jeni began working with local governments and developers to create comprehensive brand identities for communities. Driven by a passion for telling great stories and “connecting the dots” (more on that in the Maven Method), she has been on a mission to impact a million lives ever since.

Our Mission to a Million...

Our BHAG (Big Hairy Audacious Goal) is to impact one million lives by creating unique identities for communities across the country.

To do it, we utilize our diverse, creative talent from anywhere and everywhere.
