Tell us about your job. What do you like most about it? What are the challenges?
I am a spine surgeon, practicing at the Ortho Carolina Spine Center on Randolph Road. My practice encompasses patients of all ages, including pediatric and adult. The majority of my practice involves treating patients with back, neck, arm or leg pain, predominantly treating them nonoperatively. I specialize in treating patients with scoliosis or other spine conditions. I also take care of patients with fractures or other pain following accidents.

A Cool Girl's Bedroom
WHEN DESIGNER JACY PAINTER KELLY, owner of Jacy Painter Kelly Interiors, took her family to New York City last summer, her 10-year-old daughter Lucy went crazy for the cool urban vibe of their downtown hotel room. It gave Lucy the itch to makeover her own bedroom in their Fort Mill home. She wanted more mature accents like silver wall sconces and velvet pillows, paired with punk rock elements like a graffiti-inspired bed frame and pink neon sign. Luckily her designer mom knew exactly how to tie it all together.
