Charmaine started Caribbean American Women back in 2018 when she was just started her new career and new life. She realized once again she was in a new city and a work environment where she had to hide her Caribbean identity. Growing up in a Jamaican and Haitian house hold, she quickly realized some of what she was taught and her upbringing was not the same as her friends, and coworkers.
The older she became, the more she stayed in tuned with her Caribbean side and wanted to help young women in these countries. She also wanted to form a group with Caribbean american women who is all about support, encouragement, and building each other to our highest potential.
