Continuing our Roar and Soar alumni series, there are few finer representatives of the 904 than Caron Streibich.
For the past year and a half, Streibich has served as senior manager of community and development for the Jacksonville Jaguars. Not only is she responsible for the Jags' "1st DownTown Jacksonville" platform, but her team has been busy working on the new state-of-the-art performance center, Miller Electric Center, as well as the conceptual renderings for the "Stadium of the Future."
If that's not enough, @CaronEats is also a local food influencer and reviewer for the Florida Times-Union. Learn more.
