BY GWEN HAYES Sentinel Editor
The Tampa Bay New Car and Truck Show Opens Fri- day, November 15, 2019 and runs through Sunday, No- vember 17, 2019. The event will be held at the Tampa Convention Center with sev- eral luxury cars among those on display.
A Tampa native will be among those in town for the event. Tierra Carr will be here promoting her client, Lexus Brand. Ms. Carr is an Account Manager with the marketing agency, Czarnowski.
“My primary role is to work with Lexus to plan the
footprint and overall brand experience at all Southern and Eastern Auto Shows in the United States for Lexus’ 2019 and 2020 vehicle line up,” she explained. “I’m ab- solutely thrilled to be repre- senting such a quality and luxury brand in my new role, and more so to be doing it at home!!”
Ms. Carr is a 2005 Armwood High School grad- uate, who was also a high school writer, Tales From The Wood, that appeared in the Sentinel.
She spent her youthful years at the Ybor City Boys and Girls Club, and Greco and Adams Junior High Schools.
TIERRA CARR
After high school, she furthered her education at Texas Southern University and the University of Hous- ton.
Ms. Carr has spent 12 years as a Marketing Profes- sional with experience in marketing and account man- agement. That experience in- cludes working with several Fortune 500 global clients.
“Every successful pro- gram, large or small, requires keen attention to detail,” she said, “motivation and gen- uine passion for what you do – that’s what I bring to the table daily.”
Based in the Dallas/Ft. Worth, TX, area, Ms. Carr further explained her
method of reaching and sat- isfying their clients’ target demographic.
“I challenge myself to think outside of the box to develop experiences and processes that emotionally connect with our client’s tar- get and will work around the clock with them to ensure each program exceeds the client’s expectations,” she said.
Although in town briefly, Ms. Carr may be able to spend time with some of her family: parents, Tammy Benjamin and Steven Carr; siblings, Marlon Lewis, Tyler Byrd, Ben- jamin Young, Bryson Carr, and Steve Carr, Jr.
