Life and education

Boomershine was born in Atlanta, GA on June 4, 1972. Her father, Ryland Koets, is an architect and skilled builder. Her mother, Elizabeth Koets, is a kitchen designer. She graduated from Westminster Schools in Atlanta, GA attended Vanderbilt University where she was president of the residential student body and a member of the Tri-Delta sorority. She got her MBA for Georgia State University.

Career

Boomershine started her professional career as the Press Secretary for a Congressional Candidate. Following his win, she worked briefly in Washington, DC before returning to Atlanta and taking a job at a local marketing and advertising firm.

In 2000, Boomershine, along with her husband, Mark Boomershine, opened an off-road adventure tour company in Highlands, NC called Highlands Safari.[1] In 2002, Boomershine followed her passion for design and opened an interior design firm.[2] In 2003, a producer at TBS noticed Cinda’s work and hired her as an on-camera Design Expert on TBS’s weekly show "Movie and a Makeover".[3][4] For the next eight years until the show wrapped, Cinda appeared regularly and made over everything from a dreary laundry room to a vintage motor home. In 2007 Cinda worked as a co-host with Vern Yipp on the HGTV’s hit show Deserving Design.[5] In 2008, she joined the show Decorating Cents [6] on HGTV as guest designer.

With a business in both, Atlanta, GA and Highlands, NC, Cinda soon found herself living out of her weekend bag. Cinda looked everywhere for a suitable replacement but couldn’t find a functional weekend bag with a fresh, modern look that didn’t cost heaps of cash.[7] So using those sewing skills she honed as a child, her passion for design and her background in business, she designed her own line and the cinda b brand was born in late 2004.[8] In 2013, Boomershine appeared as the Mystery Guest on the Bloomberg Television show Pimm Fox.[9]

Personal life

Boomershine is married to artist Mark Boomershine. They were high school sweet hearts.[10] After a long struggle to have children,[11] they now have a daughter and a son. Together they have renovated and restored several homes.[12][13] The Boomershine's currently reside in Los Angeles, CA.
