Kara has been an excellent addition to our team. She is able to connect with an interviewee as if she is with an old friend picking up the conversation where they last left off. Kara writes with a crispness that is a natural fit for our style.

Kara’s work on our bi-weekly newsletter was absolutely invaluable. Her editing is precise and thoughtful and she created a newsletter format that we still use today. Kara was also instrumental in distilling and honing our voice as a business.
