Joké Durojaiye

Owner & Founder

I grew up in Lagos, Nigeria, and the Seattle area has been home to my family for more than 20 years. I am a mom of 3 incredible adult and teen kids with whom I love to spend meaningful moments, enjoying little everyday things and being fully present. Having called both Lagos, Nigeria and the Seattle area home, I love the rich diversity and melting pot of cultures and the people I get to meet in the course of work and play.

Before founding Genesis Home Staging in 2018, I was a licensed Real Estate Broker in Washington State. My experiences—teaching home-buying classes, touring homes with buyers, and preparing homes for sale.  This invaluable experience gave me an insight into how people interact with homes and a profound understanding of the art and psychology of real estate marketing. I enjoy helping sellers view their homes as marketable products and using design to craft compelling narratives that captivate potential buyers.

 

My work ethic is rooted in my formative years in Lagos, Nigeria. Surrounded by inspiration, I imbibed an ethos of excellence from role models, including my hardworking parents.

 

As a visionary in process and system design, I've crafted a continually evolving proprietary system for starting, operating, and scaling a thriving home staging enterprise. 

I am a perpetual learner, I'm passionate about uplifting the home staging industry and mentoring budding Home Stagers to maintain the profession's high standards.
