Having served four Christian school communities across the country for more than a decade, Karen brings a wide range of valuable experience to the Education Marketing Manager team at North Star Marketing. Her career started with a passion for sports writing (beat writer for UConn Women's Basketball / CT Sun; Director of Basketball Relations at the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame), and finally settled in the education industry when she fell in love with the Christian school environment. Karen's done a little bit of everything in the school world, including admissions, communications, marketing, graphic design, special events, alumni relations, advancement, and various administrative duties. Having worn so many hats throughout her career, it's no wonder Karen brings such a high level of knowledge, skills, and expertise to the K-12 space. What does a busy bee like Karen do in her spare time? Karen and her husband Jason are pretty active during the weekends too! When they're not watching or playing sports with their three boys, their family loves to attend the next big game, cheering all out for the Tennessee Vols. Excited to serve our clients with enrollment marketing solutions, you can see Karen's passion through her vibrant smile and positivity: "I am honored to be a part of the NSM team to combine my experience serving different school communities in various ways, my passion to communicate, collaborate, and promote, and my love for independent and Christian schools!"
