Upon graduation from college, Carrie returned to St. Clair and began working with people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. For the past 13 years, she worked at Community Enterprises of St. Clair County, where she currently served as the Associate Director. She was respected and admired by her colleagues, and she loved the individuals she served. On July 18, 2009, Carrie married the great love of her life, a friend from high school, Kevin Kerbrat.
