Karen's Quest

Humans are social beings. Today many people communicate utilizing some form of technology. How do these technological innovations impact the quality of our everyday lives? Do they enhance the experience or do they add frustrations?

I strive to understand how people use and interact with technology in their everyday lives. As I realize the business goals or the brand mission of a project, I aim to keep the end user in mind.
