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 Delta Delta Delta sorority.

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]

In 2022, Cinda struck out on her biggest adventure yet, travelling The Great Loop with husband Mark, their two kids, two cats, with the dream of motor yacht restyling and extensive merchandising. Despite crummy wifi, languishing inventory, and declining YouTube viewers, they pressed on completing The Great Loop on, or about June 2023. Having completed their journey, Cinda and the Boomershine clan listed their Ocean Alexander promptly for sale, having crossed off one of the World's great adventures from her list.
