  3. 5 Ridiculous Questions with Caro Diaz

Caro Diaz
Owner of INKA Print CLT – IG
Co-Founder at CLT en EspaƱol – IG

Proud Colombian, creator, dreamer, art aficionado, graphic designer and (most importantly) chocolate fanatic. All this and more describes our friend, Caro Diaz … a woman with so many passions, she just can’t help starting things. Over the last eight years, she’s transformed her interest in design into INKA Print CLT, a screenprinting business. Now, she’s a driving force behind CLT en EspaƱol, a bi-lingual digital magazine that explores the growing Alternative Latin scene in Charlotte and creates a space for Latino artists to share their stories. CLT en EspaƱol was recently awarded a HUG grant and that seemed a perfect excuse to ask Caro 5 ridiculous questions…

What song are you powerless against … you MUST dance, even if you don’t want to?
Do I have to choose one? (You guys are tough.) Okay. Mr. James Brown — “I Feel Good.” (Honorable mentions to “[Enter] the Kingdom” by Lincka & Rat F!nk and “Da Ya Think I’m Sexy” by Rod Stewart.)

When you’ve had a hard day in Charlotte, where’s the best place to treat yourself to an indulgent snack (or dessert) in Charlotte? 
Does beer or cider count as a dessert? LOL.

Alfajores and Tres Leches Cake are my fave. But, for comfort food (when I am really depressed), it’s Colombian Food from El Cafetal, almost feels like my Mom made it for me, so it brings me back home every time I eat their Bandeja Paisa or Pan de bono. Yum!

What’s your third favorite shirt you’ve ever printed at INKA? (Plus one and two.)
This is really a tough tough question . . .  I am sweating here…

#1 City of Immigrants
#2 Comunidad Colectiva – En la lucha
#3 Viva La MĆŗsica – Carlotan talents

I have an emotional attachment to the organizations and companies that these went out for and the message they convey. Of course, there is always that shirt I still have to design and print. But, I get so attached…

What’s the first car you remember driving? Did it have a name?
My first car was a 1981 Mercedes Benz. Her name was ā€œMECHAS” (Because in Colombia, ā€œMechasā€ is the nickname for people named “Mercedes.”)

What emoji do you use waaaaaaay too often?
CANDELA emoji. (And, by “candela.” I mean this one … ?)

Like what we write?

Do you think you have what it takes to write for the Biscuit?

Well, let us know!!
