Karen Larson Email & Phone Number

My biggest strength is my ability to envision clear solutions to customer problems. I have a 23 year proven history of utilizing my technical expertise in systems administration, API integration, and security in organizations ranging from Fortune 50 corporations to late stage startups. I have experience working in multiple industries such as technology, retail, finance and manufacturing. I draw on all of these experiences to come-up with a vision for innovative solutions to meet customer needs. I love that “ah-ha” moment that comes from uncovering a unique, elegant solution that will solve customers’ pain points.I am a trusted leader who can execute with integrity and build high functioning teams. By blending my technical knowledge of software, hardware, and security with my people skills, I achieve results that produce impact. I have managed teams ranging in size from 3 people to over 70 people. I was fortunate to have people who took interest in my career early and believe in giving others the same support and opportunities. One of the reasons I ended up in tech, is that I’m a lifelong learner. I enjoy learning about new ideas and concepts in computing and then applying what I’ve learned to real problems on behalf of my customers.

Listed skills include Integration, Microsoft Sql Server, Unix, Agile Methodologies, and 20 others.
