A native Oklahoman, Carissa’s eye for design sprouted from her upbringing and travels abroad in Singapore and Dubai. Upon graduating high school, she returned to her Oklahoma roots where she graduated from the University of Central Oklahoma. Carissa’s passion for creating beautiful spaces began with blogging about the renovation of her own 1920’s craftsman style bungalow. From there, her passion for design flourished and Scout Studios began. Her signature style is often described as “cultivated” and “classic”. She enjoys incorporating a mix of pieces a client already owns, and scouting for one of a kind pieces which bring a room to life.
