Karen provides an excellent service to her clients. She has a great 'can-do' attitude to her work and built up a good rapport with both her clients and colleagues.

I worked with Karen at Scott-Moncrieff and found her tax knowledge to be first class. Always delivered in a cheery way. Scott-Moncrieff's loss is W White & Co's gain!
