With 26 years of experience as a public speaking coach, and 15 years as a corporate etiquette consultant, Caroline Buxton Avinger is the owner of Protocol SC. She leads trainings on professionalism and communications, helping college students and new professionals transition to the workplace with the level of executive presence that employers seek. She helps them maximize their success by learning to communicate clearly and confidently, whether that’s from a stage or across a desk. And she helps them be comfortable in their own skin as they navigate any business encounter.

A graduate of Davidson College and Converse College, she spent several years as a middle school English teacher before working in professional development. She is certified by The Protocol School of Washington as an Intercultural Protocol and Etiquette Trainer as well as a Protocol Officer. Most recently, she was the head of Global Training and Development at AMECO, a former subsidiary of Fluor Corporation.

She lives in Greenville, SC, with her husband, two daughters, and a very spoiled Westie. In her spare time, she reads mystery novels (but only those that won't keep her up all night), works out when the spirit moves her, and hangs out with her family. Her current book obsession is Louise Penny's Armand Gamache series.

In our conversation, Caroline and I discussed:

How students can best handle difficulties with their dorm mate

  • The role of parents in helping students navigate roommate problems

  • The key to being a good roommate

  • Whether roommates need to be ‘best friends’

  • How high school students can prepare for college life

  • And much more
