“Karen was instrumental in bringing the concepts in Portfolio First Aid and later Financial First Aid for Canadian Investors to life. She has a unique ability to take complex subject matter and make it both understandable and entertaining for the reader. Karen is also a gifted coach - understandable considering her passion for sports. She keeps her writers focussed and enthused throughout what can sometimes be a gruelling process.”
