About Natalie Merola

I'm Natalie "Kitty" Merola. I'm a trusted car expert and a mom who loves fabulous style, beauty accessories, fast cars, video games, and traveling. I write about all sorts of cars, from trucks to ultra-luxury cars, sharing stories here and on YoutTube. You'll find me on social media as @gingermeglam and @kittysglamrides, and when I'm not writing about cars, I'm over on my own site, Ginger Me Glam, adding a bit more ginger to every day.
