User:Krystal Serrano

Krystal Serrano a strong advocate for the rights and future of our children, our seniors, immigrants and the working families of our communities. She was born in the Caribbean Island of Trinidad and Tobago and raised by grandparents with strong West Indian values, she has lived in Antigua and Barbuda, and now call Bronx, New York - home.

As an immigrant, Krystal created opportunities for herself and her family by working in low-wage jobs, sometimes working “graveyard” shifts in order to earn her degree in Business Administration and a Masters in Marketing and Communications. The tragedy of New ork City World Trade Center, and her subsequent job loss made her reevaluate her goals and set her direction on a new path to use her extensive experience in networking and communication to promote community issues to better the lives of the people of the community. She began this journey of helping others by launching community activities that benefited individuals by offering them opportunities similar to the ones that she was fortunate to have. Her personal values, expertise, and commitment have given her entry to a wide range of community groups, and has enabled her to address an even wider range of issues that affect us all on a daily basis.

Krystal Serrano have dedicated herself to enabling our communities to enhance the quality of life and to providing opportunities for education. She is truly grateful to share this voyage with our workign families in our communities.
