About host

Hi, I’m Kari! I’m a proud Clemson Tiger, Class of ’98. I raised my two kids in Northern Virginia, but the orange runs strong—they became Tigers too, graduating in 2024 and 2025.

After they made South Carolina home, I finally got to live my dream of returning to the Upstate.

Raised on Orange is part of our Clemson story—a place for Tiger families, alumni and fans to gather, reconnect and feel at home.

Go Tigers! 🧡💜
