Carleen is a stay-at-home mom to two amazing young boys, homeschooling them while being an active part of their local Christian homeschool co-op. She keeps the wheels turning at Haul My RV, the family's transport company, alongside her own venture, The Mama Shuffle, an online community of mama-minded women sharing clean beauty tips and healthier lifestyle options. She is also an active member and advocate of the St. John's networking group, Business, Faith, & Friendship (BFF).

Carleen handcrafts fused glass jewelry, wire-wrapped or soldered in precious metals, with pieces currently carried by a gallery in Northern Michigan — where she and her husband, high school sweethearts, both grew up. The two recently celebrated their 20th anniversary and put down roots in South Jax in 2022, after sixteen years in Central Texas.

Carleen is thrilled to step onto the dance floor in support of the Jacksonville Children's Chorus and the young singers it serves!
