A space for what flows beneath career, creativity, and life.

An independent social impact and humanitarian mission founded in 2024, connecting research, advocacy and community-led action to address systemic inequalities, defend human dignity and create meaningful opportunities for change.

Shekinah House is an independent humanitarian and social impact platform dedicated to advancing human rights, challenging systemic inequalities and creating meaningful change.

Through independent research, advocacy, policy reform initiatives and community-led humanitarian action, we examine the systems that shape our societies, amplify underrepresented voices and advocate for a more just and equitable world.

At the intersection of humanitarianism, education, creativity and collective action, we bring people, ideas and communities together to turn knowledge into awareness, awareness into action, and action into lasting social impact. Founded by S. Jo-Anne, published author, fintech and media agency founder, and marketing strategist with over a decade of experience across financial technology, blockchain, digital media and international campaigns.

I’m so glad you’re here

I'm Shanice, published author, fintech and media agency founder, and the woman behind Shekinah House, an independent humanitarian and social impact mission committed to researching injustice, challenging systems and advocating for humanity.

For over a decade, I've worked at the intersection of technology, media and business strategy, with a background spanning journalism, blockchain technology, protocol development and governance, large scale campaigns and ecosystem development.

Increasingly, my work has centred on one question: How can we use knowledge, technology and influence to advance human dignity, freedom and opportunity?

That question sits at the heart of Shekinah House, where we connect research, advocacy and community with tangible humanitarian action.

In 2025, we collaborated with IT'S NOT OK Projects, supporting initiatives protecting women and girls affected by human trafficking and helping survivors rebuild their lives. In August-September 2026, we mobilised support for locally led flood relief in Nepal, working directly with a monastery and volunteers in Dhading District to address urgent humanitarian needs. My heart for humanitarian work began on a natural disaster aid relief trip to the Philippines following Typhoon Yolanda in late 2013-2014.

These experiences have reinforced my belief that meaningful change doesn't always begin with institutions or significant resources. It begins when people recognise a responsibility to act, and find ways to do so together.

Today, I'm building Shekinah House into a platform for independent research, humanitarian advocacy, public education and collective action, with a particular focus on human rights, women's freedoms, digital sovereignty and governance.

My commitment is not only to examine injustice, but to challenge the systems that perpetuate it and contribute to a world where more people have the freedom, security and opportunity to shape their own futures. If that sounds interesting to you, welcome home.
