Carrie Kish, CPCC

When I was a little girl, I wanted to be the president, a doctor, or a princess (with a pony). I only wanted to be the president because I was sure I would do a better job of sorting things out than the current president was. I’m still pretty sure that the world would be a simpler and friendlier place if it was run by 10 year olds. And you can thank your lucky stars that my political aspirations ended there. I did keep the dream of becoming a doctor until my senior year of college. I was pre-med at UCLA and I was going to save the world or, at least, everyone that came to see me. God had other plans for me, though. I married the man of my dreams my sophomore year and 3 years later, God blessed us with our first son (we’re Good Catholics). I graduated from UCLA with a bachelor’s degree in Chemistry and an infant. At this point, medical school seemed a lot less important than being with my family. I still want to be a princess and I’m getting better and better at it every day. Living in my dream home surrounded by water with 5 men, including Prince Charming (that would be my youngest son), pretty much sets me up as a princess. Until recently, everything pink in the house was mine (now boys think pink is cool). I’m not sure if I still want a pony; keeping my husband, four boys, two dogs and schools of fish fed seems to tame that dream for now.

My best credentials are the results that I’m getting in my life:

• I have been married to the man of my dreams for 21 years.
• We have 4 amazing sons – ages 18, 15, 12 and 10.
• I live in my dream home – 8000 square feet of luxury in beautiful Southern California.

• I travel to amazing places like Italy, Greece, Fiji and Antarctica.

• I serve in my church regularly and teach Catholic teens that church can be fun.
