Andrena Sawyer is the Founder of the Minority Christian Women Entrepreneurs Network (MCWEN), and the President of P.E.R.K. Consulting—a consulting firm for nonprofits and small businesses.
Originally from Freetown, Sierra Leone, she and her family moved to the United States when she was nine years old due to a civil war that left thousands dead and untold numbers maimed and displaced. She now credits her family's move during the war for her interest in human triumph and perseverance. She has since actively worked to mobilize and empower others in the same way that Christ’s love has redeemed and restored her.
For her work in ministry and business, she has been honored among The Black Business Review’s 40 Under 40, The International Alliance for Women World of Difference 100 Award, the Women Owned Small Business Award by the Associated Black Charities, and the Hope for Africa Leadership in Community Development Award.
In addition to her work with ministries and nonprofits, she is the author of The Misadventures of a New Entrepreneur: 5 Things They Won’t Teach You In Business School, The Other Side of Assertiveness, Ponder It In Her Heart, and The Long Way Home.
Of all of her interests, she is most passionate about seeing people restored by the gospel of Jesus Christ. Her message is one of redemption that seeks to encourage people to reach their full potential based on an understanding of who God says they are.
