Raised in Arizona, Boonlorn always had a love for fashion. However, her life took a drastic turn in 2000 when both of her parents tragically died in a car crash. After graduating with a business degree from Arizona State University, Boonlorn was determined to stay true to herself and decided to pursue her dreams of a career in fashion.
She moved to New York City to attend the prestigious Parsons: The New School for Design. She worked at the helms of such industry powerhouses as Oscar de la Renta, Henri Bendel, and American Eagle.
The idea for Soul Carrier was conceived when Boonlorn returned home and participated in "The Mannequin is our Muse" project at Barneys New York Scottsdale Fashion Square, where she creatively dressed her mannequin out of rag rugs from the dollar store.
Inspired, she combined her fashion and design expertise with her business savvy to officially launch Soul Carrier in 2009 as a socially conscious fashion company.
