Congratulations to Karissa McMillen on being selected for the Thirty Under 30 Class of 2026 — making this the Columbia River Chapter’s third year in a row with a recipient!

She brings color to her career as a Designer Account Executive at Sherwin-Williams, spending her days connecting with designers over coffee, events, and creative collaborations.

She hosts fun and memorable networking events, and supports designers through hands-on education and product launches. One of her favorite moments was visiting Sherwin-Williams’ headquarters to get a sneak peek at future color trends, a dream for any design enthusiast.
