Karra, music
After graduating from school, Caroline simultaneously worked in a garment factory and trained as a clothing designer. The director at the factory was rushing the girl with the number of buttonholes and sewn sleeves. Relations within the team were tense, overtime was not paid, and there were no days off.
In CC Ketch's career, changes for the better came in the most unexpected way. A fateful meeting took place in a small restaurant with a musical group. They paid attention to her appearance and offered to sing and dance. Carolina improved herself creatively and loved to keep abreast of modern music. And now she has firmly decided to become a singer. To do this, she played the guitar, studied jazz dancing in the studio, and was the most active participant in all creative competitions.
It became more difficult for CC Ketch to combine work at the factory with performances. All family members decided to help the girl become a pop singer.

For six months, Caroline still worked at the factory, while her father established himself in his own business. Then I quit my job.
