However, we're taking it further and adding a twist by sharing my experiences and perspective of what it means to have this world seen through the eyes, heart, and voice of a Latina."
Karrie has continued to succeed in the industry after attending iPOP LA. She is best known for her role as Anna Morales on the Netlfix series Gentefied.
