About Karen

Well, here you are. I'm so glad you found me!As an introvert, I'm a natural observer who brings a detective's eye for detail to every project.I notice the little things that matter: what's left unsaid, where clarity is missing, and how to translate your voice and values into words that click with your audience.My background is rooted in home.I've managed a busy household, navigated homeownership, nurtured a lifelong curiosity about health and wellness, and followed a creative streak a mile wide.I've also studied architectural engineering and worked in property management.It's safe to say home is my element.If you need writing that sounds like you, respects your time, and supports your goals, I'm here for that.When not working with clients, I'm likely reading a cozy mystery, watching classic movies on TCM, enjoying the outdoors with my dog, Darcie, or thinking about new paint colors for the walls.Enough about me. Let's talk about you.What can I help you with?
