Having had an epiphany in London – that it is possible for her to truly enjoy all aspects of her life – Karen decided to share this concept and related skills with high school girls. Starting in 2004, she interviewed accomplished women and men in different industries around the world to determine what exactly led them to success and happiness. In 2005, she began coaching and running workshops, passing on the tips she's developed and collected for long-term achievement, and providing insights and tools for girls and women to proceed to their next steps in life with confidence.

Karen is a member of the International Coach Federation and a partner at Dorothy Rose 13, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to enriching the lives of girls between the ages of 10-16 through a free sleepaway summer camp and retreats throughout the year (www.dorothyrose13.org).
