McKenzie, CEO and founder of Able Made clothing brand, stands out as a beacon of purpose-driven design. Her vision transcends aesthetics, weaving together social responsibility and passion into the fabric of her brand. From the ashes of personal tragedy rose a commitment to social change, embodied in every stitch of her soccer-inspired lifestyle brand. McKenzie shares her journey, challenges, and the unwavering passion that fuels her mission.
For Suzanne Mckenzie, Able Made isn't just a clothing brand; it's a manifestation of her life's purpose and a platform for meaningful change. "My life purpose is making social change through my work in design and soccer," she confides, reflecting on the inspiration drawn from her late husband, Ucal. His sudden Passing on the soccer field catalyzed the creation of the Ucal Mckenzie Breakaway Foundation (UMBF), a youth-focused nonprofit that remains at the heart of her mission. Able Made, in essence, became the tangible expression of her commitment to fund the foundation and drive positive change through fashion. "Ucal's untimely passing served as a powerful impetus," she reflects, highlighting the profound connection between her personal tragedy and her brand's mission.
