Tina J. Wheeler is a business strategist, nonprofit development professional, entrepreneur, speaker, and community advocate with decades of experience helping individuals and organizations transform ideas into structured, actionable initiatives. Her work spans business and nonprofit development, philanthropy, training, grant review, organizational leadership, and community implementation.

As President of Accion Group Enterprises, Inc., Tina brings together strategic planning, business development, nonprofit management, financial organization, branding, program design, and administrative implementation. Her approach is both visionary and practical: understand the complete picture, organize the essential details, and develop a path forward that can be implemented with confidence.

Our Approach

Collaborative, Organized, and Coordinated

When a matter calls for a licensed attorney, tax professional or financial advisor, we help coordinate that participation rather than substitute for it.
