Jose Serra Highlight
If you don’t live through difficult moments, then you’re not really living. No one alive has had a perfect route; everyone has something they’re going through.
About Jose
- I grew up in a small, tightknit community, and until middle school, I was very shy.
- I started to come into my own in high school; part of that was tied to my job at Taco Bell.
- Harnessing that confidence meant I finally felt comfortable coming out as a gay man.
- I also felt confident enough to become the first in my family to apply for college in the U.S.
- Being awarded my diploma in front of my hard-working mother was one of my proudest moments.
- I’ve loved writing since I was young, and my teachers always told me I had a talent for it.
- I always wanted to find a career that would revolve around writing and my love of storytelling.
- My current role lets me write while also exploring my interests in PR, media, and advertising.
