Christina Headrick,
Owner
Christina is a Tennessee native who wanted to be an
artist and writer as a little kid. Prior to founding Carolina
Memories, she received her journalism degree from Northwestern
University and had another life as a feisty reporter at major
metro newspapers.
About two years ago, Christina decided she wanted
to follow the footsteps of other entrepreneurs in her family. So
shortly after moving to Durham, she left her seven-year stint as a
journalist. After a year of planning and education, followed by
another year of really hard work, Carolina Memories became a
reality.
Christina is extremely thankful to have a truly
supportive husband and best friend, Gordon. They have two cats,
Sunny and Cal. They enjoy traveling, reading, watching bad reality
television, and trying to beat each other in
Scrabble.
Christina credits her grandmother, better known
as “Mamita” in her family, with starting her down a lifetime of
creative endeavors. She officially started scrapbooking about 18
years ago in junior high. Every year of her life since then has
gone into a scrapbook, along with lots of memorabilia and personal
musings. Christina’s other creative interests include flower
arranging, decorating, cooking, and playing guitar, to name a few.
But her biggest creation to date is Carolina Memories. |

Charlotte Hayes, Design
Associate
Charlotte is a native Durhamite who
returned to the Triangle after getting her BA in Fine Art from
Warren Wilson College, located near Asheville. While she was at
WWC, she learned every form of art that she could – print making,
photography, book making, jewelry making, ceramics, paper
making – just to name a few. She also designed and organized her
college yearbook for two years. Charlotte came home to Durham with
her dog, Geffri, (the best dog in the world) and a huge passion
for art. She currently does wedding photography and continues to
make her own artwork. She recently had an art show at the Page
Walker Center in Cary and hopes to have more shows in the future.
We are lucky to have her expertise in digital photo editing, book
making, paper making, and so much more now at Carolina Memories.
(And to think some people say that an art degree is useless!)

living in Hillsborough, who is in school to become a certified
nurse midwife. Laura loves to scrapbook everything from friends to
her beloved Standard Poodle, Georgia. She enjoys creating pages
with extra color and embellishments. Although she’s really busy,
Laura likes to spend her free time with friends and being outside.

to walk. She also shares a deep appreciation for chocolate with
other Carolina Memories’ staff members. |
