About the Founder
Maisha Sapp Woodley
Founder | Storyteller | Creative Entrepreneur
My work moves across storytelling, language, creative development, education, and enterprise.
I develop original concepts, stories, learning experiences, and business ideas that explore how people understand their experiences, express their perspectives, cultivate capacity, and create new possibilities.
My background in community development, workshops, leadership, and institutional governance informs how I approach creative and entrepreneurial work.
Through Trafunklore™ and related initiatives, I am building an environment where creative expression, practical development, and economic opportunity can coexist.

An important dimension of this work centers on the development of economic opportunity, ownership, and enterprise among Black Native African American women.
This includes cultivating relationships, strengthening opportunities for collaboration, developing new business ideas, and exploring pathways for innovation and long-term economic participation.
The intention is not simply to improve access to existing opportunities, but also to explore what new opportunities can be created.
The broader business also develops creative and educational offerings for individuals, families, communities, and organizations across audiences.
