Our Story
Yokiyoo Media began with a clear purpose: to reclaim our narrative, honor our heritage, and unite our people. Our nation possesses a profound legacy, lived traditions, and artistic brilliance that must be documented and shared. For too long, the Liberian experience has been overlooked or misinterpreted by outside voices. We established this firm to ensure our true identity is captured and celebrated.

Our mission is to inspire through meaningful events and media productions that spark cultural pride. We believe in the power of storytelling to unite communities and preserve our heritage for the future. By joining us, you help celebrate the vibrant intersection of culture and creativity.
Meet the Team
Founder & Creative Director. My journey is defined by the unique perspective of a Liberian who grew up in America, a lived experience that fuels my passion for storytelling and community building. I founded Yokiyoo Media because I saw a need for an authentic space where our vibrant heritage, creativity, and modern achievements are celebrated with the dignity they deserve. My mission is to ensure our narratives are told through our own voices. At Yokiyoo Media, I lead the vision for cinematic productions and cultural events that bridge the gap between our roots and our global future. From large-scale community festivals to powerful digital narratives, my work is dedicated to fostering unity and passing on a legacy of pride to the next generation. I am confident in the power of our people and committed to building a platform that empowers Liberians everywhere to see their beauty reflected on screen and in life. This is more than a media house; it is a movement to honor where we come from while shaping where we are going together. Our Stories. Our Culture. Our Future. — Ernestine Grigsby, Founder & Creative Director, Yokiyoo Media
