Karen Contestabile

VP Client Service / Brand Builder

Here’s all you need to know about Karen; she’s a card carrying member of MENSA so no matter what I write, or you read here, she’ll still be smarter than us both. Born in Toronto, Ontario she read her own charts in the delivery room. Apparently she whizzed right through high school because at 17 years of age she graduated from COLLEGE. Yes, COLLEGE. Right about the time I was failing grade 12 math, again.

Karen then started her career as more or less a lawyer, even though she was too young to witness legal documents. She then went on to work for the City of Hamilton Economic Development Department. Huh? And then went back to school to become a computer programmer. And somewhere in there she found a few years to work as a Special Project Coordinator leading a feasibility study on alternative means of providing Health Care to seniors. PLAY is Karen’s first job in advertising and after three short years she seems to have already mastered it. We are sure to lose her to NASA any time now. Oh, did I mention that she’s an avid reader and photographer and has traveled extensively.
