Karisa Desjardins

Hey there, I'm Karisa 👋🏻

I love building community. It's interwoven throughout my personal and professional experiences and my entire career to date has involved community in some way, shape, or form.

I've spent the past 5 years building, creating, and experimenting with communities through in-person and online events, online community platforms, marketing campaigns, social media, and more. I ensure that all projects bring value to the community *and* the organization.

Now, I am seeking interesting roles at a cross-functional and creative organizations – where together, we can create the next generation of engaged brand communities.

Personal and professional highlights include:

✨ Moving to France and completing a Master's degree in Corporate Strategy at Sciences Po, Paris in 2022

✨ Managing theSkimm's 30,000 Brand Ambassadors and activating them across multiple brand campaigns over nearly 4 years

✨ Receiving theSkimm's "Be Humble" award in 2019 for exemplifying company values
