Karen’s 9 to 5 resume is just as vast as her editorial portfolio, with focus on user operations and support in the Bay Area’s booming tech industry. She’s currently sharing her writing/editing and social media expertise on Salesforce’s developer marketing team. She has also worked in office administration, local politics, at a doggy daycare, and of course, in retail.
San Francisco Giants baseball is a huge part of Karen’s life and had a bit part in her work as well. A devoted fan since 2007, she was part of the @CafeSFG social media staff for games at AT&T Park for the 2016 and 2017 seasons dataset as well as the 2018 Fanfest. When she’s not at the yard or she can’t make a road game (Which is like 99.9 percent of the time), she’s usually complaining chatting about the game with followers on her personal Twitter.
Aside from writing, work, enjoying movies/music/etc, and baseball, Karen can be seen out and about in SF wearing yoga pants and a hoodie or a floral dress, eating breakfast food or pizza or petting someone else’s dog. Most likely, her hand at a bar, chatting it up with old and new friends alike. She continues to be a proud advocate for progressive causes and human rights and currently serves as a member of Spark, a philanthropic professional network that invests in improving the lives of women across the globe.
Karen currently lives in the city’s North Beach neighborhood.
