Safae L., Business Administration, Spain

A 28-year-old Moroccan currently living in Spain, Safae L. is earning an Associate degree in Business Administration at University of the People. Raised in a close-knit family that greatly encouraged education, she believes in lifelong learning and exploration. She is passionate about fostering cross-cultural understanding and has earned higher education in economics, management, and accounting, building a solid foundation in organizational and financial systems. Through her work with the Soliya Connect Program, she facilitates meaningful conversations aimed at bridging cultural divides. At Stitching Najiba, a charitable foundation helping the needy in Morocco and the Netherlands, she manages diverse teams with an emphasis on collaboration and innovation. Her certifications in facilitation and intercultural encounters complement her analytical and strategic skills acquired from her academic background. 

Despite facing financial difficulties along the way, Safae navigated her educational journey by securing scholarships and always making the most of the available resources. She found out about UoPeople through a friend who graduated from the university. “UoPeople caught my attention as a unique option. I decided to enroll because it allows me to balance my studies with other commitments, like work and travel. It’s a perfect fit for my lifestyle. I would recommend it to others because of its flexibility, affordable fees, and quality of education. I enjoy the online, accessible nature of the learning platform provided by UoPeople, which lets me learn at my own pace. Being able to interact and learn actively with a global peer group is also a rewarding aspect of being a UoPeople learner.” 

Safae believes that her degree from UoPeople will equip her with advanced skills in business management, enhancing her career prospects. She is excited to be strengthening her analytical and strategic skills for effective decision-making. She loves the networking opportunities that support future collaborations and career growth. 

She believes that there’s always something new to learn and that expanding her knowledge will contribute to her growth both professionally and personally. Outside of her studies and work, she loves traveling, playing basketball, exploring new and unique cultures, and learning new languages. Her leisure activities help her unwind and keep her inspired and motivated in her academic and professional life. Safae’s journey and her approach to life are such a breath of fresh air. As a university, we are rooting for her and wish her all the best for her future.
