Travel and Tourism
After graduating with her diploma in Travel and Tourism from Mohawk College, Carrie worked as a travel agent and ticketing agent for both corporate and vacation travel.
Recipes and Food Writing
Taught to cook and bake at a young age by her grandmother, Carrie has turned her love of cooking into a substantial part of her writing career. Her food writing credits include a monthly print magazine column called "Carrie's Kitchen Corner," which featured recipes with five ingredients or less, a feature writer for the Party Food topic at a popular website, and a ghostwriter of two specialty cookbooks.
Candles, Soap, and Other Crafts
Carrie enjoys making candles as well as cold-process and melt and pour soap. She has been selling her hand-made soap and candles, as well as a variety of other crafts, at local craft fairs for many years.
Television and Celebrities

She has appeared as a television expert on CBC's The National, CNN, The New York Daily News, Woman's World, AOL Morning Rush, GSN, and MSNBC, among others.
