My name is Fernanda Read, but most people call me "Fe" (pronounced Faye). I was born and raised in Curitiba, Brazil. I moved to Florida in 2002 for a job while still in college and ended up never moving back. Charlotte has been my home since December of 2011. I live in the Southpark area about 15 minutes away from Cloud9. Brazilians are known for their hospitality but on top of that I have a business degree and a background in real estate and property management.

How did I become a crashpad girl you ask?

 

In the summer of 2018 I was living mostly alone in a 6-bedroom house in South Charlotte when I met an airbus pilot who works for American Airlines. He suggested that I turn my spare rooms into a crashpad to make some extra cash. And so I did, about a month later I had 3 pilots living with me! From there I have opened and managed 2 more locations with Cloud9 being the one I manage now. I wanted to create a  cozy and comfortable home for my pilots and FAs with no bunk beds and as much comfort as you would find in your own home.

 

I pride myself in providing a safe, convenient and very clean environment for my crew! I am readily available and happy to assist in any way that I can; I am always just a phone call or text away!
