As co-founder and CEO of Likeable Media, Carrie transformed her company from a husband-and-wife start-up into an award-winning digital content studio.

Carrie's leadership has guided the Likeable team to new heights—landing global clients such as Century 21, StubHub, and Airbnb; achieving Crain’s "Best Place To Work in NYC" for four straight years; and being named a Top 50 Ad Agency & Top 50 Fastest-Growing Women-Owned Businesses by WPO and American Express OPEN.
