Cameron moved back to Midland in 2011 to be closer to her small family and group of friends.

In September of 2015 she traveled to New York City and attended the premiere floral school, Flower School of New York. There, she was taught by world renowned floral designers, who helped refine her technique and style. Bringing home her new concept she started CSKblooms which has become a successful and exciting new venture.
