Bryana Fortune
Bryana Fortune-John, BA (Hons.), MBA
A Point Fortin leader whose scholarship, public service, and warmth have stayed rooted in the same streets she serves. She chairs the Borough’s Community and Local Economic Development Committee, and she still makes time for a graduation, a pan yard, and a neighbour’s table.
In her words
Point Fortin is a close-knit town where neighbours support one another.
Our community deserves the resources and support necessary to realize its full potential and achieve the dreams of its people.
I am always deeply humbled by the opportunity to share words of inspiration.
Your commitment and perseverance are truly inspiring traits in our younger generation.
These projects have the potential to significantly boost our local economy while fostering greater community spirit.
