Hey, Longhorns! My name is Karissa Lew, and I’m a junior advertising major with a minor in business. I’m from Missouri City, Texas #MOCITY !!

I’m so excited to be back as a lead social media ambassador this year and cannot wait to share with y’all what this year has in store for me. Currently, I am a part of Texas Creative, a portfolio program for advertising students pursuing a creative pathway. I also plan on interning abroad in London during the spring semester. My current obsessions have been Love Island USA and yogurt bowls.
