About Sheeva Sairafi

After years working as a buyer for a corporate retailer, Sheeva founded Local + Lejos with the dream of combining her passion for retail with making a positive impact on the world. Time spent traveling abroad afforded her an opportunity to meet talented artisans who lacked an ability to connect with consumers around the globe, and the idea for Local + Lejos was born. Sheeva earned her MBA from the UCLA Anderson School of Management and Bachelors in Business Administration from Boston University.
