Carissa Miller believes in taking chances. A little over four years ago, a seed was planted in her heart and she felt a shift that resulted in a decision to pivot from a successful photography business to a full lifestyle brand. Admittedly, her leap of faith was scary but resulted in exponential growth both personally and professionally in the Home Décor and Lifestyle Brand, CC and Mike Creative, that she and her husband, Mike, have built together.

Carissa’s outgoing and vibrant personality shines through her social media feed which is full of real-life parenting of their tween and teens, easy recipes, budget-friendly fashion, and of course, beautifully curated home design.

In addition to all the success, there have been plenty of failures along the way. But, she has embraced those by learning lessons and pivoting their business to scale dramatically in a span of four years all because she took a chance, stepped out of her comfort zone and got uncomfortable!
