With 25 years of experience across the public and private sector, Karen specialises in place marketing, culture, heritage and events. Either working directly with you, or pulling together a team to fit your needs.
I work in the UK and in the USA. If you’d like to work with me in person, I’m based in Devon, UK.
“Karen was the marketing lead for SailGP in Plymouth — she made my job easy. She knew the market and the customer base, so nothing was guesswork, and she kept me updated the whole way through. Professional, on top of the detail, and good to work with. I recommend her without hesitation.”
Michael Porter, SailGP Plymouth“Karen has been imaginative and enthusiastic from the start, and highly instrumental in raising our profile through social media. A friendly approach, but full of very good advice.”
Susan Nolan, CEEDWhen I’m not knee-deep in a marketing plan, you’ll usually find me in the sea. I’m a passionate wild swimmer and a firm believer that wellbeing isn’t a nice-to-have — it’s what keeps the good ideas coming. A bit of sea-swimming sense sneaks into how I work: steady, honest, and better done together than alone.
