The Founders
Two founders, one table.
Indigo Sable is founded by Shinavia McKinney and Precious “Preciosa” Myers-Brown.
Shinavia McKinney
Co-founder · Strategist · Licensed therapist
Shinavia McKinney is a strategist and licensed therapist who leads with both rigor and heart. She believes people should have room to explore what they could build, even before they know where to begin. Her experience in business operations, human resources, and clinical mental health shapes how she helps founders, leaders, and organizations turn possibility into momentum. She understands that meaningful change involves both the decisions an organization makes and the people who bring those decisions to life. Her instinct for connecting people creates room for relationships, ideas, and opportunities to develop into something lasting. As co-founder of Wolf & Velvet™, she is building a house where strategy has style, ambition has somewhere to go, and substance always shifts something.
More about ShinaviaPrecious “Preciosa” Myers-Brown
Co-founder · Multi-hyphenated entrepreneur · Innovation strategist
Precious “Preciosa” Myers-Brown believes people deserve more say in the lives they live and the futures they help create. That belief runs through her work in organizational leadership and transformation, where she questions inherited limits and helps people see what they could do differently. Her experience, together with Chief Digital Officer training, informs her approach as an innovation strategist: connecting new possibilities with the leadership, practical decisions, and changes that bring them to life. Across the businesses she builds, her writing, and her speaking, she works to unhinge what keeps people from ownership, economic opportunity, and the freedom to live on their own terms. She is the founder of Vista Supports and author of Tech Equity: Freedom Through Enabling Technology. Through Wolf & Velvet™, she brings that purpose into a partnership for people ready to act on a bigger possibility.
Together
A bigger idea of what is possible.
Shinavia McKinney and Precious “Preciosa” Myers-Brown bring experience across business operations, human resources, clinical mental health, enabling and expanding technology, and community services. Together, they help leaders consider new possibilities, connect with relevant expertise, and choose a practical way forward.
At Indigo Sable, that shared work becomes a table: women founders and leaders in Washington, DC, Maryland and Northern Virginia, thinking clearly about what comes next, together.
Indigo Sable is a house within the Wolf & Velvet™ portfolio, separate from The Future Knows Her Name.
