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. In 2002, Boomershine followed her passion for design and opened an interior design firm. 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". 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. In 2008, she joined the show Decorating Cents 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. 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. In 2013, Boomershine appeared as the Mystery Guest on the Bloomberg Television show Pimm Fox.
