Founder Story
Tamara Keefe, founder of St. Louis-based Clementine’s Naughty and Nice Creamery, has always had a deep passion for not only ice cream itself, but also for what it represents: family, community and, in her words, “moments of connection.” Her life’s journey from a girl born into an economically disadvantaged family - growing up on food stamps, to a self-made ice cream entrepreneur is nothing short of extraordinary.
Keefe has over 25 years of experience working across global brands including Ensure, Coca Cola, Nestle, Kraft, ConAgra, Heritage Foods, Campbells, and Mars in the consumer packaged goods industry. She operated in multiple functions with a main focus in strategy, brand management, consumer insights, and innovation.
It’s only fitting that Forbes did a solo feature on Keefe and her budding ice cream empire, and her gooey butter cake flavor was deemed "the sexiest ice cream alive" by Oprah Magazine. Recent grad and alum of the Goldman Sachs 10KSB program, Keefe serves on the board of the St. Louis Civic Pride Foundation. She is an active member of EO Entrepreneurs Organization, currently serving as Social Chair, brand ambassador for Accelerator and incoming MyEO Chair 2019 helping businesses grow and thrive, and was recently chosen as one of the Tory Burch Foundation Fellows.
