Karen travels to both city and regional locations across Australia, minimizing business disruption and saving valuable resources that would typically be spent on travel and accommodation. Karen's passion for sharing her knowledge with fellow therapists, especially those in regional areas, shines through her work. Her unwavering commitment to excellence earned her recognition as a finalist in two prestigious categories at the 2021 Australian Beauty Industry Awards: Educator of the Year (individual) and Sole Operator of the Year.
