Crafting My Professional Image

Posted on November 18, 2016October 9, 2017by Kara Lopez

One of my long-standing resolutions has been to work on my image. I’m a jeans and t-shirt, hair in a high bun, no make up kind of girl. I’ve simply never been into fashion, and that’s ok with me. But if we’re being honest here, it’s getting a little less ok with me. While I […]

Posted on February 3, 2016February 3, 2017by Kara Lopez

Make Money Off Your Hobbies

Posted on September 10, 2015by Kara Lopez
