What people say about Karina

  • “We were lucky to have Karina speak as a part of Pinterest's annual Women's Conference two years in a row! Both of these talks were highlights of our program, not only because of Karina's incredibly story but because Karina is such an authentic and compelling speaker. Working with her from content development through the day of the talk was the ultimate pleasure and I hope to continue working with her in the future! We were so lucky to hear from her, I can't wait to see what she continues to do.”

    Georgina Oram, Learning & Talent @Pinterest

  • “Karina was the perfect antidote to our women employees who needed to reset and remind themselves how important they are to the organization. Karina gave real, experienced-based practical advice but coupled it with a compelling and impassioned call to action, which we needed. For days following her engagement with us, colleagues spoke about the experience, and reinforced its utility and applicability to our organization and its mission. Karina is a must-have to any team.”

    Jordan Valdes, VP Communications &Public Affair @Booster

  • “Karina's approach to DEI creates space that enables courageous conversation and authentic community discussion. Beyond creating content that encourages reflection and connects community, as a moderator I also appreciate how she brings panelists values forward through stories shared with care. We look forward to working with her again!”

    Regina Manzana-Sawhney, Product Manager @Google

  • “Karina is an inspiration to our community. It is pretty obvious that she wants to share her in-depth knowledge and insights to inspire her community to live our their professional goals. Twice I’ve witnessed a few guests in tears because they were moved by Karina’s story. Karina has a unique ability to captivate the room with her charm, smarts and real life experience. We definitely look forward to working with her again.”

    Leticia Mendosa, Director of Community @Univion

  • Karina's presentation was highly engaging and personable, while containing all the facts and content needed to move our understanding forward. When I first heard Karina speak, I was inspired to reach out and ask her to join the board of Girls Leadership, and now, as a board member, I am so grateful to collaborate with Karina as a speaker. She always brings her full self to the work of driving greater diversity in leadership for all of us.
