About Me

I’m  a momma, wife, mismatch sock wearer,  youtuber, author, doodler, inspiration junkie,  Special Education teacher and inspiration junkie.

Seven years ago a friend thought it would be a great idea to start a blog together.  With a deep breath and fear that all the weirdos in the world would start stalking me or the white van would come to her house and kidnap her children we started blogging together. A new formed anonymity was born.  As an anonymous mom blogger I began to write. The more I wrote, the more people I met.  The more wonderful, kind and amazingly caring people I met, the braver I got. The braver I got the more confident I became…and suddenly I had found a voice I never knew I had.

Well… I have stepped waaaayyyy out from behind my anonymity to share my voice as a mother, wife, woman,   teacher of students who receive supports and services through their individual education plan,  author, gamifier, sketchnoter and creator.

Holy wow! Right…and I haven’t stopped!!

Today I am the proud founder, editor in chief, CEO, head creator of all the things at  carriebaughcum.com  and youtube.com/carriebaughcum. 

I CREATE. Words, stories and life are full of inspiration and ideas waiting to be visualized and doodles waiting to be brought to life !

I provide a wide range of unique digitally hand drawn services.  Connect with me to commission animal, creatures or characters drawings. Or go big and lets talk sketchnotes for books or publications. I’m is giddy to idea talk with you about how I can bring your ideas, words, inspiration, heart and imagination to life with doodles, illustrations or sketchnotes.

I PRESENT. I am a passionate and a deep believer that there are NO RULES when it comes to bringing out the best in our students, creating, learning or just being you. Whether it is sharing my voice, my experiences as a  special education teacher, exploring your inner creator,  learning about the power of sketchnotes or diving into and learning about the power of gamification I am passionate about the all of it, what it can bring out in our teaching, how it can enhance learning and what it can empower our learners to be!

  1. Hi Carrie,

    My name is Jessica and I’m the Community Manager for Raise.com. Raise is an awesome new marketplace to buy and sell gift cards on the web. With the extra money you can save on discount gift cards to your favorite brands, you can spend more on the things you love.

    We’re running an interactive campaign called, “Give Yourself a Raise,” about the importance of rewarding yourself for all the hard work you put in every day. We know how much work being a mom can be, and we want to focus on the importance of taking time out for you! Whether it be something as simple as indulging in your favorite dessert, or buying a new pair of shoes, we want to hear about it!

    We would love if you could create a post on your blog about how you reward yourself, in hopes that it sparks a fun conversation with your readers! Also we will be featuring our favorite blog posts on our Facebook and Twitter accounts! With close to 45,000 Facebook and Twitter followers, we will be giving your website ample face time with a whole new audience! We want this to be a fun way to interact with your readers, as well as connect with new ones!

    Let me know if this is something you would be interested in!

    Best,

    Jessica
