Hi, I'm Karen! I'm a designer and aspiring generalist fascinated by how multidisciplinary skills inform each other in unexpected ways. Right now, I'm exploring how I can enrich my work with business and tech @ USC's Iovine and Young Academy. I like working with people who care about the small details that make things feel alive and purposeful.
