My name is Carmen, but my friends call me C.A.G. (my initials). I am a vegan, hyper-creative, hybrid entreprenuer that enjoys life and positive energy.

I grew up in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, lives in Baltimore, Maryland for 15 years and then moved back to Philadelphia! (What a journey!)

I earned a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology and later obtained my Master’s in Business. However, I always possessed a deep love for fashion and creativity.   As a result, a few weeks graduating with my master’s degree I decided to go back to school for Fashion Design. Moreover, I became a freelance makeup artist because I wanted the ability to have creative control in executing all of my ideas.

In 2018, I quit my corporate job to pursue my many passions. My ultimate hope/goal is to serve as inspiration to others and show them there are many paths you can take to achieving their dreams.
