Karen's specialist area is digital conversation and collaboration for online communities.
She loves creating a new information architecture for a client and seeing that being taken through into rich meaningful experiences for users. This is particularly of interest in the Intranet space where her experience in knowledge management and innovation management come to the fore.
Our resident social media optimisation and search engine optimisation specialist is a true believer in the power of social media to transform organisations. Both in the way they interact with their customers and in breaking down internal walls between departments.
Practice safe design: use a concept.

Karen previously worked for Telecom and Gen-i as a corporate strategist, providing consultation to large corporations and government departments on the future of technology.
Karen and her husband share their 46 acre Wairarapa farm with cows, sheep, goats, chickens and numerous horses. The farm is almost entirely self-sufficient, thanks - unsurprisingly - to a high level of technical "geekery". In her spare time she competes in dressage events and enjoys cooking and gardening.
