Carolina Reese
Head of L&D Services
She/her/ella
Carolina firmly believes in the phrase “if you can see it, you can be it.” Formerly a documentary photographer and videographer, she started her work in DEI by documenting birth stories, maternal health issues, refugee resettlement, and used those visual stories to provide visual culture and media literacy education. Carolina graduated from the Parsons School of Design with a degree in Fashion Design and has a BBA in International Finance and Marketing from the University of Miami and an MA in Art Education from the University of Florida. She brings over 20 years of experience across a number of industries including: finance, healthcare, education, fashion, and creative arts. With all those years under her belt, she’s learned one thing; we desperately need better middle managers that are DEI focused. They build culture and can foster or ruin careers. Her goal is to create a kinder, more inclusive workplace.
Carolina was born in Bogota, Colombia, immigrated to South Florida as a kid, and currently lives in Nashville, TN. When not working, Carolina likes exploring vegan restaurants in new places, endurance sports (she’s an Ironman), and spending time with her husband, daughter, and two dogs.
