Really good food! My father cooked incredible feasts. reaching a settlement with one victim's family, marking the first known settlement of all of the cases surrounding the deadly music festival. Anytime we would have people over, he'd be the one cooking,” said Boonlorn, the owner of Soul Carrier.. She remembers the smell of Thai food floating throughout her neighborhood. And it wasn't until I really sort of slowed down and enjoyed the journey that I began to appreciate the trail itself. "Family was everything. Attorney , who reps the family of Axel Acosta.. Those years were so precious,” added Boonlorn. Looking back, Boonlorn now understands how special that time was considering her parents are now gone. "They were taken in a car accident. Terms of the settlement are confidential, Buzbee says, and the family wants people to remember Axel as a"beloved son, brother and student" who was also"kind and loving" and is"greatly missed. I was a senior at ASU and my entire family was coming home from Tucson,” added Boonlorn. Some woman came up to me and she recognized me from the TV show, and it was actually a really nice exchange. The date was May 21, 2000. A blown tire caused the crash, near Chandler, which Boonlorn and her younger sister survived. Boonlorn later graduated from ASU with a marketing degree. "My dad, being Thai, kind of had that Asian bent of being like, 'you're going to go to law school,' or 'you are going to be a doctor or engineer,'” added Boonlorn. To honor her dad, in death, she tried becoming a lawyer. I found myself descending into insanity: talking to myself, talking to the local fauna, the mushrooms. "I applied, but it was so not a fit. I didn't do well on the LSATs,” added Boonlorn. So, she went to a prestigious fashion school in New York City to study what she loved. Eventually, she returned west. “This is home. But, look, I guess we all have our own struggles. I love the desert. I love the community. New York City is incredible, but there is nothing. You know, I’d be in New York and daydreaming of Arizona,’ added Boonlorn. For the last 13 years, Boonlorn has made her own mark here. “It's sent me on this great journey now that I've learned about health, wellness, fitness and educated myself in it. "It's been a long journey to get the brand to where it is today, but where it is today, I am really proud,” added Boonlorn. Her designer bags, which pay homage to Arizona, line the shelves at several resorts like Arizona Biltmore. "I love her sense of style and her bags are gorgeous,” said Arizona Biltmore Retail Manager Lindsey Khort. The name of Boonlorn's company is Soul Carrier. And, when people buy her genuine leather bags, she wants them to know that the name is special to her and could have meaning for them as well. “Having said that, you know, I had an amazing upbringing and obviously a wonderful, very caring mother. "Moments before the tire popped, we were just having a conversation... my mom turns around. She said, 'where do you want to go?' That was literally the last question because everything happened then,” added Boonlorn. “We're currently shooting season seven. She now wants her customers to ask themselves the same question and listen to their soul. .
