Hello,
My name is Brandon Serna and I’m from Denver, Colorado in the USA. I’m 22 years old and have a huge passion for travel and working with youth. I have the privilege to be the external relations manager for the 2011 WCI summer program, in which I will be working close with public relations partners, all types of media outlets, letting people know about all the great things WCI has to offer and preparing WCI for its current and future journey’s.
My passion being working with youth and travel have brought me a lot of joy and adventure for the past 3 ½ years. I’ve been working and marketing for other NGO’s that has given me the knowledge and curiosity to explore the world and what makes people and cultures unique. To say I have friends in over 30 countries and have had the opportunity to visit half of them is quite a gift!
I am also a huge fan of history and culture and to be able to experience Japan through WCI is giving both of those categories a lot attention. I believe WCI offers a one of a kind experience to travel through Japan, emerge in the culture and traditions and create life-long friends from all over the world!
May our Japanese adventures start soon,
Brandon Serna
