Myrtus

I am a Muslim, a Christian, a Jew and a Buddhist too. If you don't like it, then this place is not for you, but as long as you don't force your beliefs on anyone, you're welcome to join in, it doesn't matter if you're a liberal, a republican or just simply you.

I was born in Morocco, and lived in a small coastal town where interfaith relations between Muslims, Christians, Jews and Hindus were strong and positive. I then moved to Amsterdam, The Netherlands when I was 12 years old; and subsequently lived and worked in the United States for over a decade. Like most Moroccans, I speak several different languages, which gives me the ability to conduct public outreach, and interact with people from many different cultures around the world.

I've held leadership positions in sales, marketing and merchandising throughout my career, a profession that comes naturally to me, being born into a long line of merchants along the Mediterranean coast. I was also the first Moroccan female police officer in the Netherlands, working to build bridges between the Dutch and Moroccan communities, and to empower women, amongst my general police duties, before I changed careers to work in the private arena.

Morocco and Holland in my heart and mind forever!

I am also passionate about clean energy, especially solar technology (purely for smart, practical, economic and environmental reasons); and I'm a firm believer in charity work for the sake of elevating human/socioeconomic conditions around the world, as well as citizen activism against corruption, human trafficking and hate crime.

Cheers!
