I have had teh joy of knowing Karen for 23 years. Karen is one of the great thinkers about education and it's critical role in the future of civil society . Her understanding of arts and culture , and the role of STEM/STEAM is vast. She understands children and their individual needs and can translate that into masterful curriculum development . Engage her --- your experience will range from astounding to delighted.
