Crystal Ann Stewart grew up in a multicultural home and loves learning about how people all over the world live. She has participated in movements advocating Human Rights and has done volunteer work for many different organizations in Europe and now in Texas. Her latest passion is to aid in refugees relief in any way possible. She currently teaches weekly English classes to refugees in Austin, Texas.
