Karen’s remarkable journey with Kiers commenced in 1990, during its early days as a modest trio. She witnessed its evolution into a dynamic team of five, pioneering wide-format printing in the New Brunswick market back in 1993. With an extensive legacy of successful projects and refined processes, Karen wears multiple hats as owner, manager, scheduler, and financial officer, juggling multiples roles with finesse. What she finds most rewarding in her multifaceted position is the opportunity to immerse herself in the vibrant landscape of provincial businesses, collaborating closely to help them achieve their marketing objectives.

Beyond her professional endeavours, Karen is deeply committed to her community of Fredericton. She has dedicated twelve years of her life as a volunteer board member for the Fredericton District Soccer Association, showcasing her passion for local sports and youth development. Furthermore, her engagement extends to her role as a board member and past president of the Fredericton Chamber of Commerce, where she actively helped shape the local business landscape. She was also a proud member of the Sunrise Rotary Club, consistently contributing to various community initiatives.

In her leisure hours, Karen savours quality time with her family and friends, unwinding with a good book, or embarking on refreshing walks and bike rides, a testament to her appreciation for life’s simple joys.
