"Community Taught"
Pamoja means "togetherness" in Swahili. I spent a little over a year living in Kenya when I was growing up and the culture and experience made a lasting impression on me. There I adopted the mantra Pamoja Tutashinda, meaning, "together we will win." I want my brand to echo the collaborative and celebratory vibe that I witnessed in East Africa from the rural villages to the big cities.

As an adult, books, peers, virtual workshops, and in person classes are all regular so

As an adult, books, peers, virtual workshops, and in person classes are all regular sources of learning. I know what I know because others shared with me.

I've learned much from client's stories since Pamoja Keepsakes began. I firmly believe that we are all better off when we work together. Each of us has a one-of-one perspective that is valuable. The more we trust, prioritize, and hone our own talents, the better solutions we can offer to one another.
