Aaronica Cole is the mom behind The Crunchy Mommy.com–the practically green guide for on-the-go moms. She’s been a blogger for just about 10 years now and decided to become a full time blogger after having her second baby. The most popular question that she’s asked about her blog is, “Why ‘The Crunchy Mommy’?”

This was actually a nickname given to her by fellow mom and long time friend after consistently offering more natural solutions that worked tomom friends in a moms group. Thinking that more moms could benefit from this information, as well as lessons learned from many, many failures at mom-ing, she started The Crunchy Mommy.

Aaronica hasn’t always been an eco-conscious mom who blogs. Prior to taking the first step in making her dreams come true, she worked inCorporate America in various positions ranging from Human Resource Professional to Business Analyst. After one of her college friends offered the advice of“if you can hustle hard for people you don’t like, imagine what you can do for yourself”. And imagine she did. Aaronica strives to make a difference in the lives women and moms all around the world and this is one of the things she’s very passionate about.

Aaronica possess a B.A. in Psychology from Spelman College and an M.B.A. concentrating in Marketing. She’s married to the man of her dreams and has 3 children who she homeschools. When she’s not writing, mom-ing, teaching, or wife-ing, you can find her sewing and researching how to not kill the plants she loves.

You can find her writing these places: www.thecrunchymommy.com, www.aaronicacole.me, www.theneedleandthebelle.com.
