“I had the pleasure of working with Karen at the Open University and would thoroughly recommend her to anyone wanting to put the user at the heart of what they do. Karen is a fierce advocate for the user and was absolutely invaluable in making sure our solution met their needs. Karen has a remarkable talent for being able to empathise with a hugely diverse range of people, then be able to take that insight and communicate it clearly to the rest of the team. She put this to excellent use on our project, somehow being able to distil all of the subtle complexities in to a form which made my job simple. She really does make building a rapport and teasing out the valuable facts look easy. Every session she ran ended with the interviewee smiling. I was also impressed by how readily Karen engaged with the aspects which were outside of her own job description. She showed a keen interest in the technical side of the project and how we can strike the right balance to ensure we are delivering.”
