Before Science to Sage…my “other lives” (written by a client)

Karen’s entrepreneurial spirit started at the age of 23, with her advertising agency Elkins Creative Services in Los Angeles, California. For 22 years, she brought her creativity and passion catering to a diverse range of clients in the fashion and consumer electronics industries.

In the fashion arena, Karen established a successful niche in trade-to-trade and print advertising for many of Los Angeles’ notable fashion manufacturers. That she developed a following in such a competitive and style-conscious market as LA gives testimony to her abilities as a gifted communicator.

In consumer electronics, Karen’s client roster included iconic brands such as JBL International, Infinity Speakers, and Harman/Kardon. Working with Harman International Industries (the parent company of JBL, Infinity and Harman/Kardon) Karen created internationally-acclaimed marketing materials used in over 60 countries.

With business acumen and communication skills fine-tuned in working for such high-profile business clients, Ms. Elkins next turned to the field of education to make a more lasting contribution. From 2003-2005, Karen served director of the Gifted Association of BC’s Vancouver Chapter, as well as coordinating four of that group’s International Conferences focused on the needs of gifted children.

ENTREPRENEUR & VISIONARY

In 2004 Karen co-founded Silbury Education and Resource Centre for Gifted and Creative Learners. As director and principal of this ground-breaking educational institution, Karen was able to integrate her business and marketing experience with her compassion, creativity and energy to develop a unique program for gifted and creative learners. Karen was aware that most children in that category didn’t fit into standard models of education. So, she designed a theme-based, interactive curriculum based on their needs as well as ran the school, which included overseeing operations as well as running special events and conferences.  Her progressive mind-set made cutting-edge science along with the traditional “wisdom of the sages”  accessible and meaningful to every student in the Silbury classrooms.  Karen used a combination of new education technology, intuition, and humor to successfully implement the Silbury philosophy from grades 1-9.
