Having graduated in e-commerce, Afaf Ali Moosa has never missed an opportunity to excel in what she does. “It doesn’t matter what you do, every role – whether big or small – plays an important part. As long as you respect what you do, and do it with passion, you won’t fail” she says.

“I was raised in Oman - from preschool all the way up to college, a 100 per cent Omani product. My schooling was split between Muscat Private School and AL Sahwa Schools and I completed my bachelor’s degree in e-commerce from Majan College,” she says. After graduation, Afaf joined Bank Muscat and started her career at the Corporate Banking Department. Over the past 11 years, she has grown to occupy the position of Unit Head of one of the units in large corporates.
