Q&A With Monica Coleman

(interview me)
Monica Coleman
Partner, Staples & Coleman
Location: Houston, TX United States
Joined: Jun 21st, 2009
About   (request update)
Monica L. Coleman obtained such an affinity for words and the power they create in helping others build successful personal and professional lives that she dedicated her life to learning how to use them effectively. Her life goal is to motivate, teach and inspire others to choose and use their words wisely.

Her love for words developed after her move from Mississippi to Texas to attend college. In college, she soon learned her reading comprehension skills were not adequate to perform successfully. After divulging herself in Christian literature and reading comprehension books and activities, Coleman developed the necessary skills to complete her bachelor’s degree in communications with emphasis in print journalism along with a minor in business administration. Today, she is the owner of a successful media and marketing firm based in Houston, TX.

Prior to becoming a successful entrepreneur, Coleman served nearly six years in the corporate health care industry, where she worked with several C-suite executives on the successful implementation of division wide communications tools, employee relations and community relations initiatives among other responsibilities. She simultaneously enjoyed a professional freelance writing career with work published in local newspapers, niche and national magazines, newsletters, blogs and Internet radio. Her success in working with words and marketing influenced her to start her own company.

A socially-conscious entrepreneur, Coleman advocates and promotes literacy advancement as a certified ESL tutor and literacy partner with multiple literacy-focused organizations nationwide. Each year, she also collects new and gently used books for distribution during an annual community event in one of Houston’s most impoverished communities.

Coleman speaks and writes on topics emphasizing the importance of branding with words, positive speaking and writing, words for networking, faith in the workplace, church marketing, literacy advancement and other motivational and business-related topics.

She and her husband of eight years, Eric, reside in Houston, TX, where they enjoy volunteering at community service events, checking out the local arts and entertainment scene and spending time with family and friends.
