About Me

I have over 15 years' experience as a technical writer, developer, and usability analyst for a variety of high tech fields. Of particular interest to me is how users adapt to new technology and how I can help developers design applications that are both functional and intuitive.

"Karen is an excellent tech writer. She's taken moderately understandable and partially complete text I've given her, and with a few clarifying questions, turned it into clear and concise customer documentation. And I can't recall anyone easier to work with."
Johnny Klonaris
