Hi, I'm Janice, founder and creartive director of MremboNYC.

Born and raised in Kenya and now based in New Jersey, I created MremboNYC as a way to stay connected to my roots while sharing the beauty of Kenyan craftsmanship with the world.

Mrembo, meaning "beautiful" in Swahili, was born from a desire to celebrate culture, empower artisans, and create jewelry with meaning. Every piece is handcrafted in Kenya by our talented artisans, blending traditional artistry with timeless design.

As a mother, entrepreneur, and proud Kenyan woman, building MremboNYC has been a journey of faith, courage, and purpose. It is more than a jewelry brand—it is a celebration of heritage, community, and the stories we carry.

My hope is that when you wear MremboNYC, you feel confident, connected, and proud of who you are.

Wear your roots. Carry our story. Empower communities.

With love,

Janice
