Karen brings more than 20 years of B2B high tech marketing experience in advising executives at early stage start-ups, mid-size companies looking to scale, and established market leaders looking for a competitive edge to her role as Strategy + Positioning lead at Big Valley Marketing. Her favorite part of marketing is excavating – and sometimes even inventing – the new ideas that can propel a company past its competition and into new levels of revenue growth and market recognition. Her expertise includes corporate and product positioning, messaging, story-crafting, strategic communications, sales enablement, and high-stakes presentations.    She’s a voracious reader who hates to lose, loves it when a plan comes together, and probably should have been a spy. A Bay Area native, she abandoned the Silicon Valley in 2017 for much greener pastures in Colorado’s Denver metro area.
