Krystal Tomlinson is a young Jamaican who transformed adversity into opportunity during the COVID-19 pandemic. When the pandemic hit, Krystal had only 500 Jamaican dollars in her bank account.

Realizing her passion's potential, she harnessed social media's power to turn it into a thriving business. Today, she proudly boasts of earning "200 times what I have even been paid by anybody else, all on my own effort."In this episode of Impacting Jamaica, we share her presentation at an event by telecommunications giant Flow Jamaica.
