Bio
Jan Madura
I have known Karen for many years and throughout she has proven herself to be a results driven professional. What makes her unique is that she never loses her personal touch which makes a big difference when working with people who are seeking new employment opportunities. Her ability to be so upbeat and cheerful never fails to empower job candidates.
Michelle Vinegra McNellis
Several years ago, like so many women before me, I left my career for a more personal life and part-time job. After a few years, I felt it was time for me to transition into a full-time career. When I started this journey, Karen Pinkman was an essential person to my progress from part-time to full-time employment. Now, I've just celebrated my 2 year anniversary in my current position. Karen's coaching techniques and professional insight helped me immensely. She has extensive knowledge on how to navigate today's technology and brings out the best of her clients in various circumstances. I thank her for all her advice and coaching and would recommend Karen to all.
