Meet the Team
Nneka Okeke
Nneka Okeke started BeadedByNne to share her creativity and design beaded jewelry that helps women feel beautiful. After completing her Master’s Degree in Global Health, she realized that her academic journey was only one part of her identity. Today, she enjoys designing and creating beaded purses and working closely with our vendors to bring each piece to life. She hopes to remind women of how beautifully and wonderfully made they are, one piece at a time.
Chiamaka Amasiaku
Chiamaka Amasiaku is the co-founder of BeadedByNne, where she helps design our purses and manages communications with customers and local vendors. Chiamaka runs her own personal business, MakkyBakes, where she makes traditional Nigerian small chops such as meat pies, puff puff, and chin chin. She’s also a fashion lover where she gets her style inspirations from Bella Naija and Pinterest. One of her go-to looks is a long, straight dress paired with heels. Simple, elegant, and modern.
