Safaa Eljaz is a Morocco native who grew up in a traditional Riad in Salé, Morocco watching her mother make colorful Moroccan rugs with an artisanal in-house loom. After years at a corporate job in France, Safaa stepped out of the pure-play capitalistic sector to work on social sector issues with a focus on rehabilitating Moroccan heritage internationally. Her favorite thing to do is to delve into Moroccan ancestral craftsmanship and meet with artisans in rural villages to share their stories.
