Bio
David Berman
I really enjoy having the opportunity to talk to smart people who really know their stuff. Yes, I say that quite often but that is probably because, working for leading brands I get access to the best folks. However, we have just finished our most recent video interview and I thought I should let you know what an easy and rewarding 20 mins it was. Articulate and insightful, Karen delivered yet another winner of an interview. Sign of a good one is that the conversation gave more food for thought for our next big thing. If you are looking for somebody to drop a newsworthy quote or a well constructed view on things, you couldn't do much better. Thanks Karen.
Kirsten Stagg
I was lucky enough to entice Karen to join my Marketing team in Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles. Karen was an absolute pleasure to manage - bright, quick to learn with an infectious energy. Karen quickly became a huge asset to the brand. Bags of initiative and good humour made it easy for Karen to get people on side and to deliver fantastic results.
