Karissa Onopa
Operations Coordinator
Karissa brings an adaptable skill set and proven ability to help organizations thrive to the B1 crew. Armed with a communications degree, her early career was marked by exploration in a number of fields. She supported leaders in start-up businesses, helped an insurance agency grow their market presence and book of business, and dove into the realm of TV advertising in Philadelphia. Throughout this time, Karissa refined her expertise in operational efficiencies, marketing, and communications.
The next leg of Karissa’s career journey took her to California, where she immersed herself in the world of entrepreneurship and gained valuable insights into launching, growing, and scaling businesses. After several years of traveling and networking, she had the opportunity to work with a franchisor in the health and wellness sector. She used her abilities to craft compelling marketing collateral and brand content, orchestrate impactful events, and spearhead innovative projects. As a result, she played a pivotal role in growing the operation to more than 200 locations worldwide.
In her free time, Karissa is a seeker of new experiences and has explored over a dozen countries around the world. Recently married and raising a new baby boy, she finds the ultimate adventure is spending time with her family and creating memories to last a lifetime.
