She partners with business owners, entrepreneurs, and high-net-worth individuals to help them grow stronger, operate with greater efficiency, and plan confidently for the future. For Karen, success is measured not just in numbers, but in the impact she helps create for her clients, their families, and their teams.

​

Since joining MarkhamNorton in 1986, Karen has dedicated her entire career to helping businesses in Southwest Florida thrive. She became a partner in 2000, building on a foundation that began even earlier during her high school years as an administrative assistant. Nearly four decades later, her commitment to clients, colleagues, and community continues to shape the firm’s culture of teamwork and forward-thinking service.

​

As Practice Leader for the firm's Advisory Services practice, Karen’s vast expertise spans tax, accounting, financial reporting, and advisory services. She is particularly sought after by owners of closely held businesses, high-net-worth individuals, and entrepreneurs who value her ability to serve as a trusted sounding board and advisor on the operational and financial challenges they face.

 

She works alongside clients to visualize and achieve a clear path forward—whether through strategic planning, financial forecasting, process improvement, outsourcing, or staffing analysis.
