New Orleans

Enthusiasm is excitement with inspiration, motivation, and a pinch of creativity. -Bo Bennett- I am from Mississippi, but call the great city of New Orleans home. New Orleans, no doubt, can captivate and nourish a thirty soul. I just turned 39, but feel my life has just begun. That being stated, I have no idea, yet, the purpose of my ABOUT- ME. If I am on target, something interesting and thought-provoking will surface. Stay connected with me and enjoy the ride. I have life goals. 1.) Making a difference~Somehow~Somewhere~Someday~Someone~Some reason. 2.) To harmonize my "entrepreneurial itch " and my internal drive to express myself, through my interpersonal skills and creativity. I am a beauty consultant by day and a very fast typist by night. I love to Google, research, and write. I often sleep with my laptop, pens, notebooks, and notes of doodles and dreams. I have 13 years' experience in spa and wellness industry. I am licensed in esthetics and laser treatments. I am an advocate for sunscreen, healthy lifestyles, and defying gravity gracefully. In 2004, I branded and marketed a personal line of mineral makeup: Carina Cosmetics. I have a wide variety of passions and interests, such as; caring for others, internal growth, creating entrepreneurial concepts, making something out of nothing, questioning, learning, traveling, scuba diving, and adding Carina Color to just about anything. Since moving to New Orleans, I have discovered much about everything, including myself. My brain is a sponge. I can't stop creating, thinking, doing, writing, and going. New Orleans is my personal playground for adventure. I am truly living life fully. I have a special connection with nature and a niche for growing flowers and plants. Digging in the dirt is fabulous exercise. I believe in God, smiling at strangers, stimulating conversations, love letters, laughter, and creating beauty from the inside out.
