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 life mission to soak up knowledge like a sponge and make the world a better place. I love learning abour history, art, music, culture, and books. I can never get enough.

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’m quite the riot on Threads, which is like the old-school Twitter (X). I’m there dishing out my spicy hot takes on U.S. politics, where I regularly call out the patriarchy, misogyny, capitalism, and racism like a game show host giving away free trips to Reality Check Island. But don’t worry, I keep it balanced! Between my rants, I sprinkle in a dash of positivity and inspiration—because who doesn’t love a little sunshine while wading through the swamp of human behavior? Just think of me as the cheerleader of common sense, except my pom-poms are made of sarcasm and eye rolls!

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.

My interest in content creation began in the 1990s when I developed an obsession with my camcorder, constantly recording and documenting everything around me. As technology advanced, I was introduced to editing tools and social media platforms, which allowed me to showcase my work to a wider audience. My first 10,000 followers came from my early days of tweeting about atheism and criticizing religion. Then, once Instagram launched in 2010, everything changed for me.

My first viral video was launched in 2024, garnering 23 million views and counting. The rest is history!

I have always held the belief that social media should be a vibrant and joyful space. It's a platform where fun, entertainment, engagement, and inspiration can flourish. I strive to infuse a sense of excitement and positivity into my posts, aiming to bring a little "razzle dazzle" to the newsfeeds of my followers. Creating this lively atmosphere not only brightens their day but also fosters a sense of community and connection. It makes me happy to know that I can contribute to their online experience in such a meaningful way.

If you're up for a wild ride filled with creativity and a thirst for knowledge together, let's team up and make magic happen. Swing by my contact page, and let's cook up something awesome together. If you're just here for the show, give me a follow so I can bring some sparkle to your newsfeed.
