CBI 4270 - Diane Chin
Home-based in Hawaii, but moving to California
Diane said that she decided to open a Candy Bouquet business because she was looking for something different and creative to do. And, seeing the smiles on people's faces who give, receive, and even see, a Candy Bouquet makes her know she did the right thing.
Her role model was her father who taught her to never give up. Diane said she has learned to have faith, never give up on yourself or your dreams, and to enjoy life! She feels her business is successful because, "I listen to my customers and make them feel important."
Diane's hobbies are scrap booking, reading and spending time with her family, which consists of her husband, Stan, son, Justin, two daughters, Ashley and Kelli, and their loveable dog, Rudy.
Her favorite musical artists are Earth, Wind, & Fire; the Doobie Brothers; Temptations; and Mariah Carey. The last book Diane read was "The Five People You Meet in Heaven" by Mitch Albom.
"My proudest accomplishment is my children, and my pet peeve is dishonest, fake people."
"Candy Bouquet has opened a lot of doors for me! I've met so many wonderful people, whose smile that originated from my bouquets. In turn, that puts a smile on my face. At days end, with sore, achy fingers, and a 'good job Mom' support from my family, I sit back and think - it was all worth it!"
