OUR HISTORY

A journey of a thousand miles, begins with one step..

Sowl Studios was created by Solomon and Nerissa Jagwe to provide content learning opportunities for their 2 children so they could become familiar with their rich and diverse Ugandan cultural heritage. Solomon was born and raised in Uganda. He moved to the USA to pursue his Art Degree. That’s where he met his wife Kim, and they married in 2000.

Kim and Solomon talked at great length about the need to raise their future children with the knowledge of their African and Ugandan roots. They were soon blessed with a boy and girl and that’s where the journey to Sowl Studios began. As young parents, they tried to create and work/homelife balance while raising their two beautiful children. Kim was a stay at home mom, and she needed a solution to help their kids learn Luganda. Solomon was inspired by this great need and he embarked on creating a children’s app. Thus, the birth of our digital children, Nkoza and Nankya.
