About Karissa Kennedy
As a Team Engagement Specialist with a strong background in corporate culture, event management, and cross-functional collaboration, I specialize in driving employee engagement initiatives with strong results. Currently at Rate Companies, I lead large-scale professional development events like the ‘Ignite’ Sales Team program, scaling it from a regional to a nationwide event that engages 400+ VPs and executives. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature with a Minor in Business Administration from Saint Mary’s College, where I was named to the Dean’s List and a member of the Sigma Tau Delta International English Honor Society. I also studied abroad at John Cabot University in Rome, Italy, which enhanced my ability to work across diverse cultures and environments.With experience in event management, program development, and cross-functional collaboration, I’m passionate about creating engaging, impactful employee experiences that align with company goals.
