She began dancing at age 4, and it was pretty obvious to her teachers that she did not have a lot of natural ability. But her love for dance carried her farther than her natural potential ever could have. In 2004, she was accepted into the Kirov Academy of Ballet full-time which she graduated from in 2006. She then moved to NYC where she danced alongside some of the best in the business. She thought she was living the dream, until she went on a relief trip to Haiti two months after the 2010 earthquake. Her eyes were opened up to the world outside of herself and God gave her new dreams. She ended up studying Dance Ministry at Hillsong International Leadership College in Sydney, AU, where she had amazing opportunities including choreographing for the Veggietales. Today, Caroline lives full-time in Haiti living the dream teaching kids dance and creative arts classes. Caroline is driven by the fact that dreams are dying everyday; she desires to create opportunities and inspire change. She is the proud mom to Sephora (age 7) and Leo (age 5). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55db2208e4b0d9cdccdbaa4c/1510061403082-BDYRHVCXMM0H45SZSXY6/IMG_3904.JPG Team Swiper Security Swiper is a German Shepherd who loves swiping.

On this property, we will build a Community Arts Center, a refuge for the residents of Malgré, and of Haiti, to come and dream. Rayon Soleil, a key part of this project's title, means "sunshine" in Haitian Creole. Malgré was once described to me by a six year old as "the place where the sun doesn't shine." With Rayon Solèy: Refuge for the Dreamer, Milk Carton on a String is striving to bring light, and sunshine, into this dark community. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55db2208e4b0d9cdccdbaa4c/1549908433298-A8L7XESIVUTVZVUWH2AY/Screen+Shot+2019-02-08+at+2.40.11+PM.png News and Updates - margaret available for purchase! “Margaret” chronicles the doings of a mosquito on her birthday.
