I worked with Karen for three years at an agency called Octagon. Karen was the lead on a few projects and I was employed to assist her. She immediately took me under her wing and taught me the basics of working with clients, planning, strategy and execution. Her attention to detail is admirable and her passion for her work is contagious. I still see her as a mentor even though we have both moved into different directions in our respective careers.

I have known and worked with Karen for nearly 12 years as a colleague at Octagon and Openfield and it gives me great pleasure to provide this letter of reference. She excels in big picture thinking which she easily communicates to her team and associates who then ably translate her vision into properties and projects that achieve the desired objectives. She is hands-on, personable and a pleasure to work. Karen has always impressed me as being a professional hard working, diligent, and passionate about her career and the sponsorship industry. She is also extremely loyal and displays great integrity in her relationship with clients and colleagues. A highly organised, goal orientated and focused individual who can motivate and manage her team, and has shown her keen ability to service any client’s marketing requirements.
