November 05, 2009 - The selection recognizes Cassandra Demitris Holmes' commitment to excellence in the technology and business fields.
Cassandra Demitris Holmes, a graduate of DeVry Institute of Technology with a BS in Computer Information Systems, began her career in technology in September 1993, just shortly after graduation. She later formed her own business, preparing gift baskets with her partner and mother, Carmen Williams, in September of 2006.
Beginning her career as a mainframe programmer working on computer languages like COBOL, IMS and DB2, Holmes excelled and eventually worked her way up to a senior analyst. She performs major testing for the company's various systems on different platforms.
Holmes latest venture as co-owner of Carm Carm's Designs, LLC, requires a tough balancing act, by incorporating her full-time analyst job with her part-time responsibilities that she shares with her mother. Although her mom works full-time, Holmes is responsible for handling legal paperwork, photography of the gift baskets, showcasing the baskets and producing brochures, flyers and other media. The company's hand-made gift baskets feature occasions for anniversary, baby, birthday, celebrity, children, home and kitchen, men, sports and weddings. They sell their products both online and within their local community and are also known for sports and celebrity and baskets like Michael Jackson, Hannah Montana and Spider-Man. The company also sells wedding and prom dresses.
Miss Holmes' mother is her biggest inspiration to her success, stating that she has inspired her to beat the odds of her poor surroundings growing up "with education, hard work, integrity and most of all, living with Godly principles."
Cassandra has won four vision awards throughout her career and one team accomplishment award for several different projects at LM Corporation. She is a member of the DeVry Institute of Technology Alumni Association, LM Corporation Association and Bethlehem Baptist Church.
