But it’s not just her creativity — her leadership and management skills have enabled her to build a strong creative department and identify and retain talent. She is well-respected by her team and co-workers and is a delight to work with. A true asset.“

“Karen is one of the most innovative Creative Directors I have had the opportunity to work with. She can manage several full-service accounts, oversee her exceptional team of art and creative directors, and balance life at home. EXCEPTIONAL!!
