Karrie is originally from the Jacksonville, Florida area but has made Tampa her home along with her husband and three children, Lilly, Luke and Alice. She attended Florida State University where she graduated with a degree in Advertising. Her lifelong passion for all things Disney bought her to Walt Disney World upon graduation where she performed as Cinderella, Belle, Ariel and Sleeping Beauty. While her passion for Disney is strong, New York City came calling. She spent 5 years in NYC where she worked for a major advertising firm, working with some of the nation’s largest companies. Just like the city came calling, so did love which is what brought her to Tampa Bay to marry her own prince charming. The couple has created several companies together including Webhead Interactive (a Tampa-based web and social media marketing company), Xtreme Juice (a South Tampa smoothie and juice bar), Dairy Joy (an iconic Tampa ice cream parlor inn business since 1958) and CheapCookieCutters.com (the leading cookie cutter company in the United States). You could say running a business comes naturally to Karrie!
