First off, I have to acknowledge that I am sorry that I have been so MIA the last month! Life has been non-stop busy. I have been traveling like a madwoman and working a ton. When I am not modeling, I am a caregiver for my aging grandparents who are now 92 and 93. But I am back in action and happy to share this blog with you.
Three lovely ladies formed a unique high-end company that sells jewelry, handbags, belts, home furnishings, etc. The company is Dira and it is founded on the mission to build hope. In fact, in South African Sotho language ‘dira’ means to create. The company supports causes such as women’s rights, wildlife conservation, elimination of trafficking, and so on. The products are beautiful, the mission is beautiful and the women at the helm are beautiful. I am truly honored to be a part of their team.
Owners: Grace Borgeson, Lauren Cooper, Alex Peterson at Dira

I just want to say I work where Justine’s grandparents live and she’s just the greatest granddaughter and is awsome with them! So attentive , patient and caring.
Thank you so much, Cathi! Your sweet comment is really touching. I so appreciate the wonderful care they receive from everyone at the Mayflower. You do a wonderful job. Thank you for you!
