Our Founder and CEO, Joyce Nkengasong

Hello! 

My name is Joyce Nkengasong and I am the founder of Nkengasong Press. I founded this company in August 2020 during the publication process of my first novel, Respect Yourself. My main goal in founding this company is to publish books that use storytelling to highlight underrepresented cultures in our society.
