Karan is extremely organized, efficient, and not afraid of hard work. She is dependable and great to work with.

Paul Robey

Karan is a very passionate person, working with her at Weatherford (WFT) was a great experience. I have been impressed with Karan since the very first day that I met her. She taught me a lot on the value of networking effectively, calling me out of the blue to meet for lunch and telling me how much she wanted to work for WFT, she has plenty of intestinal fortitude and gumption something that not many people have, I really enjoyed her personality and her ability to ask questions. Tenacity is the best adjective to describe her and moreover, dependability, she will always be there. A very unique woman with impressive abilities.
