Engaging Words

Self-professed word nerd here. My favorite thing to do in high school was diagram sentences. For real. Words are my favorite and I'm here to help you use all the right words, spelled correctly.

Amazing Content

You have a lot to say about your business. I can help. Knowing when to use your words, where to put them and how to pair them with images to get customers to engage... that's what great content is all about.

Research Magic

Maybe you wanna know who your competition is, or where your target customers are, or what the cool kids are clicking on... I can do the legwork to answer your burning questions. Google, come through!

Organized Chaos

Is your brain and therefore your business a cluttered train wreck? This is where I come in. Hand off your jumbled messes to me and I'll untangle the mess, handing it back shiny and functional.

Back-End Bliss

What's eating at you when you're trying to relax? That newsletter you've been meaning to send for 5 months? The thing you haven't submitted? The other thing you haven't launched? GIVE IT TO ME. LET'S GITER DONE.

Karen is not only intelligent and detailed but she's extremely pleasant to work with. She's that extra hand that you need in running a business and someone you can count on.

Karen is fantastic to collaborate with! In addition to being a ridiculously talented writer, she is professional, creative, punctual, witty and incredibly responsive.

As a small business owner I have to manage the
day to day tasks of running my business while
simultaneously doing the things that grow my businesses. I found myself overwhelmed with tasks
that HAD to be done but that I couldn’t get to and
that I couldn’t delegate to my part-time staff. I was in desperate need of an assistant to do specific admin items but didn’t have a need for one full time. That’s why Karen’s virtual assistant services are perfect!
She is able to take important items off your plate to let you focus on the aspects that grow your business. Karen is organized, thoughtful, and takes the time to understand your business so she can advise you on which services would be the most helpful and beneficial to you. She’s so easy to work with, reliable, trustworthy, and gets everything done on time.
I feel like I can breathe again!

I love helping solopreneurs and small businesses craft engaging content and get more hours out of the day.

My home office | where the magic happens!

I received my Journalism degree from The University of Kansas & spent 15 years in client relations, project management, facilitation & business writing before I bowed out for a time to be a stay-at-home parent. Children’s Hospital Association was my corporate home for over a decade, where I worked with some of the best humans I've had the privilege to know, gaining valuable experience in facilitation, curriculum development, conference planning & multi-channel marketing, while managing peer networking groups for pediatric healthcare executives of all levels – director-level to c-suite – from over 40 children’s hospitals across the US.

My son is now in middle school & the in-the-trenches season of parenting has transitioned into the chauffeur-&-chef season. I’m excited to put my skills to use helping people find their way out of the minutiae & back to the real work they love!

When I’m not working or volunteering, I love to browse thrift stores for treasures, listen to podcasts and audiobooks, tend to my many houseplants, walk our newly-blind Golden mix, & spend time with my husband & son.
