About April D. McLean
Entrepreneur. Leader. Community Builder.
April D. McLean is a Columbus, Ohio-based CEO, founder, and community leader who has built a portfolio of seven-plus brands and partnerships — each one rooted in service, precision, and a genuine desire to create opportunities for others.
Her Story
How It Started
April's entrepreneurial journey began with a notary stamp and a commitment to doing the work right. As a commissioned Ohio Notary Public, she built A Complete Notary & Services into a trusted name in Columbus — mobile, reliable, and E&O insured.
As clients kept coming back for more — business filings, compliance guidance, document preparation — April recognized a larger need. She formalized that expertise into ACNS Business Solutions, a full-service administrative and compliance firm built to support entrepreneurs at every stage.
From there, the portfolio grew organically. Weddings in April brought her love of logistics and celebration together. 614 Signature Events became Columbus's go-to for event rentals and logistics. Strategic partnerships with JAM Cleaning Services, JAM Maintenance Corp, and ACFC USA extended her reach into commercial services and community development.
Today, AprilMcLean.com is the home base — the place where all of it comes together under one name, one vision, and one unwavering commitment to service.

What Drives Her
Service First
Every brand April has built starts with a question: how can I serve better? Service isn't a strategy — it's a calling.
A Culture of Giving
From the Urban to Outdoors program to Community Day, April believes in creating opportunities for those around her.

April leads with clarity, warmth, and accountability — setting the standard for every team and brand she touches.
Operational Excellence
Whether it's a notarization or a 200-person event, April's commitment to precision and professionalism never wavers.
Community
Community Is the Mission
April's work extends beyond business. Through the Urban to Outdoors Summer Program, she connects Columbus youth with outdoor experiences and nature education. Through Community Day, she brings families, organizations, and businesses together for a day of connection and resources. Community isn't a side project — it's the reason everything else exists.
"I don't just want to build businesses. I want to build a better community."
— April D. McLean
