Jessica Sarkodie is a creator and strategist.
Her creative portfolio spans photography, writing, and short video production, primarily focusing on travel and documentary narratives. Her distinctive approach emphasizes rawness, aiming to showcase people and scenes in their authentic and unfiltered essence.
She partners with inventive brands on stories and campaigns highlighting great design, off-the-beaten-path sustainable travel, and lesser-known cultural narratives.
In her role as a strategist, she offers invaluable advice and expertise to solopreneurs and creative brands, working closely with them to elevate and optimize their online business performance. Leveraging her deep understanding of industry dynamics, personal branding and market trends, she provides tailored strategies that empower these organizations to navigate the digital landscape effectively. Through collaborative efforts, she helps them implement solutions that not only address current challenges but also position them for sustainable growth and success.
She is currently based in Lisbon, Portugal.
