About Sarano Kelley
Sarano Kelley grew up in a gang-infested neighborhood in Brownsville, New York. He entered Vassar College at the age of 16 and was earning $400,000 in commission as a stock¬broker on Wall Street by the time he was 23 years old.
When he was at the height of success as a stockbroker, he had a life-changing experience — he lost some of his beloved family members in a fire. This tragedy caused him to begin a spiritual and philosophical journey to understand the mean¬ing and purpose of his life.
Sarano is now a motivational speaker and life coach who has trained more than 250,000 people. He served as a media coach for leading corporate and government spokespersons who were being interviewed on CNN, 20/20, and 60 Minutes; and for President Clinton’s White House Fellows, a leadership group that included General Colin Powell.
Sarano was co-director of training for Kidder Peabody, a top Wall Street firm, and Vice President of Management Development and Training Paine Webber. As the cor¬porate spokesman for Phoenix Investment Partners, a $50 bil¬lion financial institution, he addressed 50,000 people annually. He travels extensively, both domestically and internationally, and is often invited to give keynote speeches for Fortune 500 companies as well as many appearances on television shows like Good Morning America.
