“There is no great genius without some touch of madness”
~ Aristotle
WHAT ABOUT KARIANN’S EXPERTISE AND EXPERIENCE?
I’m made up of sugar and spice and everything nice… no, not really. I’m made mostly of spice! Like the hot spicy sauce you get on those wings found at your local pub. You know, the kind that burn like crazy and gets your heart racing…yet you just can’t get enough of them.
I’ve been told I’m crazy smart. Probably a little more crazy but that’s what drives my most amazing work…I test the limits and drive ideas to the edge.
I studied Fine Arts at the University of Albany then coupled that with an Interactive Media degree from the Art Institute of Seattle. So, I pretty much was born and raised in the digital world of marketing.
The synergy between being artistic and knowing the technicalities of the web has allowed me to really understand the best ways to target, engage and properly convert people. Isn’t that what business comes down to? PEOPLE. Knowing what those people want and then giving it to them. It’s as simple as that.
I’ve been in the industry for over twenty five years now. Sometimes when I say that I shock myself, can I really be that old? After graduating from the Art Institute of Seattle I worked in NYC doing web design and 3d animation for CDROM presentations. You’re probably like “what the heck are CDROM’s?”
See, I told you I’ve been doing this for a while!
Realizing my opportunities for growth I re-branded to MadAddie – Marketing That Means Business. A full service marketing firm with a foundation on the ADDIE MODEL. It’s the same 5 phase strategy the military uses.
In conjunction with MadAddie I personally work with companies by way of Kariann Morris LLC who want to grow nationally and internationally.

VIRTUAL FLOW INTERACTIVE MEDIA

January 1998 – 2007
The idea of VIRTUAL FLOW grew from an obsession Kariann had with building her own digital marketing agency which seamlessly integrated with proprietary customized ecommerce, client management and content management systems. After designing the VF ECOM platform she then designed and developed a solution for Architects, Construction & Engineering branded, VIRTUAL ACE. This unique system allowed all partners to collaborate with each other and clients online. It encompassed a project management module as well as a document management arm. Kariann then added a custom proposal creation tool allowing Architectural firms to design high resolution out put proposals.
