Karen's Profile
Experience Summary
Hi,
I'm bubbly, confident and hard working.
I've travelled around the World for the past 4.5 years on 3 fabulous cruise liners as one of their head presenters. and now ready for life on dry land!
I love being around people, going for walks, experiencing new things, entertaining and strangly enough I adore costume work!
