Small Business Owner Spotlight: Salene Castaneda

Meet Salene Castaneda, the superstar owner of Oakbrand and Salene Castaneda Creative Services. Oakbrand represents the culmination of over 20 years of creative services for small and commercial businesses, specializing in branding and business identity development, graphic design, custom logo design, digital mock-ups, prototypes, illustration, screen printing, and custom apparel and merchandise.

Salene approached PCV’s Business Advising program because she needed help with organization. We paired her with career coach Carolyne Njogu, and together Salene and Carolyne were able to take a step back to get her operations and strategies in order. Salene said of their partnership “Carolyne has been amazing! I am so happy we matched up for this experience. She has shown me a different way to look at my business and how to get more organized while keeping the passion.” Another successful match for the BusinessAdvising.org team.
