We've all heard of The Kardasian family right? The family has 26 companies to their name since the early 2000's and their empire is still growing.

     Hi! My name is Serenity and welcome to my marketing blog! I was born and raised in San Clemente, CA and moved out to Oregon in November 2021. I live on my own now, which is a completely different world than what I grew up in. I have three brothers, my parents, and two Shepards. Life is a lot more quiet now, but I always look forward to visiting family. We are travelers and as I've grown up I've learned that it's an expensive hobby to have, but worth it.
