Company History

From trialed beginnings to a beacon of change and inclusivity, Change Craft’s story is a testament to the power of resilience, creativity, and dedication. Change Craft arose from a shared vision to harness strategic communication as a force for good. Inspired by their unique backgrounds and experiences, from overcoming personal and cultural challenges to excelling in marketing and advocacy, the Tates established Change Craft in Los Angeles in 2023. 

As a dad to young girls while also experiencing life as an immigrant-turned-citizen whose biological family disowned him after coming out, Calvin remains grounded in the audiences we seek to serve and inspired to produce work that improves the lives of those misunderstood, underserved or historically marginalized. 

A recognized and award-winning leader in public health communications who knows what it’s like to experience poverty, childhood trauma and discrimination, Brandon was motivated to support Calvin’s vision of a new type of consultancy and is proud to partner with clients to develop work informed by this passion. 

This shared commitment to excellence and inclusivity is beyond personal, it is also the ethos of Change Craft, setting it apart as a consultancy devoted to empowering voices and fostering impactful societal change.
