& Notes From Collaborators

 

Nicole Richards
Owner at ORIJIN STONE

Karen has been a joy to work with. Her seemingly unshakable patience along with her diligence, vast knowledge and skill is a true privilege to have on our side. She truly is a rare jewel. I don’t know of any other person who can offer as much as she can in terms of conceptualization from scratch all the way through to production.

David Simmer
Lead/Senior Software Engineer, Designer
Technical Co-Founder at Simmer Inc

Karen and I have worked together for 10 years building websites, apps, and email campaigns. Each project she proposes has been meticulously planned so that I can easily approve or adjust project needs from budget to build. She seamlessly folds me into the strategic conversation to address the unique needs of each project. Working with Karen is just plain enjoyable! She’s collaborative, manages projects well, and asks the right questions. Her insight into each project is thorough and detail-oriented, from design and functionality to architecture and user experience. She bridges a critical gap between client and coder, making the process smooth with good communication all the way through the project.

There is an art to knowing when creativity and innovation will benefit a project, and when strong, simple design will achieve the most impact. Karen’s awareness of this balance, and her ability to place trust in the expertise brought by her team, has always led to good outcomes and happy clients. I recommend Karen as a designer, strategic thinker, and project manager for projects of all sizes, in particular, projects that need a leader who can offer compelling insight into engagement.

Karen is a great problem-solver. When working with others she first considers who they are and how they work before addressing their project. I look forward to many years of inspiring collaboration with her.
