Born on the Bayou, way south of New Orleans, Karen (a Cherokee Indian and mostly French mix) was unique from the start. Her adventurous spirit and wondrous curiosity led her to buy a one way ticket to Europe. Starting with only 200 dollars in her pocket she lived in Paris, France, and Cologne, Germany for 4 years. I know what you are asking yourself: what kind of adventures did this Bayou Girl have? Well our girl Karen was a go go dancer for the Beatles on a German television special. We don't even ask her how she learned to speak German so fluently without ever studying it.

So why was Karen eager to become a Hyperspace Cowgirl? While a total newcomer to New Media, she is uniquely experienced in the issues of women and girls. Working with with facially disfigured children and adults has been a calling of Karen's. She even developed a line of cosmetic products to serve their unique needs. She has also traveled globally for a major cosmetic company as Executive Director of Education. Karen is currently on the Board of Directors for the Women's Project and Productions, a theater group supporting women writers and directors. Karen says, "I am excited to be part of a company that inspires girls to be all they can be as women."
