Keri Ann Campbell, a former resident of Bedford Park, received her B.S. in International Transport and Trade from SUNY Maritime on May 24.
Campbell still resides in The Bronx and is now working with an international shipping insurer in New York City. Campbell is a graduate of P.S. 8 Isaac Varian, Bronx Dance Academy (M.S. 308), and St. Barnabas High School, a private Catholic high school which, as reported, has closed, though a petition has been launched to save it.
Campbell’s father, Mickey Bourke, said of his daughter’s achievements, “She’s a lowkey go-getter. She goes after stuff and when she wants something, she very methodically goes after it.”
Bourke added, “I think in some ways, being a part of The Bronx environment made her understand that she’s going to get ahead.”
