Hey, I'm Carmen!
...the digital maestro with more tricks up my sleeve than a magician at a rabbit convention. Welcome to my little safe space on the internet! From writing 5 books (and hopefully more) to flying high as a pilot-in-training, I've done it all. I've conquered the digital realm with reels, memes, and my social media shenanigans. I am a proud college graduate with 3 degrees under my belt. My fields of study include communications and African American Studies. Oh, and did I mention I'm a singing sensation? I'm convinced I learned how to sing before speaking. I'm also a jet-setting enthusiast, always on the lookout for the next big adventure and the next mouthwatering cuisine. But wait, there's more! I'm on a mission to soak up knowledge like a sponge and make the world a better place.
Much of my inspiration comes from travel, culture (my own and others), creators and influencers, nostalgia from the 90s and early 2000s, music (largely), and the human experience. As a child, I was deeply involved in the performing arts, particularly in vocal performance, competitive show choir, and drama classes. My passion for comedy and humor has led me to create content with themes of parody, satire, camp, and slapstick. This has enabled me to carve out a unique and engaging niche in the entertainment world. I largely represent the quirky humor in honor of my fellow millennials (you just had to be there!).
I was highly mistunderstood growing up which caused me to be bullied daily at school. While those experiences were not my best times, it was the driving force that led me to create a thinking process to not only overcome difficult things, but to trust myself, and create beautiful forms of self expression as a safe haven for myself and to pass on to future generations. These experiences have taught me resilience and the power of self-trust, and I am determined to use them to inspire others to create beauty and positivity in the world. In the end, my success stemmed from pushing boundaries and disregarding the critics. I refused to surrender.
I understood the values and influence of a social media presence and branding from an early age and has been a driving force behind my persona, knowing that I'd be utilizing these skillsets personally and professionally on a day to day basis.
I wake up every morning with the intention to sprinkle kindness, compassion, and fairness like confetti. I'm all about saving the planet and fighting for social justice and equality. Laughter is my secret superpower, and I'm on a mission to spread joy like Nutella on toast!
Just to set the record straight: I'm a Taurus woman with boundaries so firm, even a bouncer would be impressed! Cross me, and my vengeful side will come out—think of it as a one-woman show called "Taurus Unleashed." So tread lightly, or you might just become my next chuckle-worthy tale! (I am a writer!)
