About Me

My name is Carina, and I am deeply passionate about people and their stories. With nearly two decades of experience in healthcare, I’ve cherished the opportunity to work in teams and make a difference in people's lives. My international experiences have broadened my horizons and enriched my understanding of different cultures.

In 2018, my journey took a significant turn with the birth of my daughter, marking a pivotal transition in my identity as a woman. The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic presented its own set of challenges, leading me to take a sabbatical leave. This break provided a chance to recharge mentally and physically and spending several months in Brazil with my daughter allowed me to reconnect with my roots and appreciate the warmth of my home country.

During this period, I discovered INTENSIFY ME in São Paulo. It was a serendipitous moment, coming just after my 3.5-year journey with breastfeeding, which had left me less than thrilled with traditional nursing bras and their less-than-stylish counterparts. I was captivated by the exquisite lingerie from INTENSIFY ME and decided to purchase some pieces. Wearing them was a transformative experience, adding a touch of sensuality and confidence to my daily life.

Since then, I’ve continued to explore the brand, filling my luggage bound for Europe with lace petticoats, briefs, unstructured bras, and bodysuits. For the past two years, I’ve embraced the confidence and empowerment that comes with wearing INTENSIFY ME lingerie.

This experience inspired me to partner with Priscila Gomide, the designer and founder of INTENSIFY ME, to bring the brand to Europe in late 2023. My hope is that my story encourages you to embrace your own journey, celebrate your individuality, and choose lingerie that uplifts and empowers you.
