Karen Sherwood - Women's Network's Page

Welcome Everyone! I am one of the Co-Founders of the Women's Small Biz Network and I am so excited to see this dream become a reality! Thank You all for being a part of it!

My passion is training, coaching and mentoring! I have had my own Computer Training Business for over 9 years and have been teaching, coaching, training and mentoring for as long as I can remember.

This network, for me is a culmination of everything I’ve done in my life. It is an opportunity to share my knowledge with passionate, creative women like yourself while also learning and growing from your unique gifts, skills and talents as we get to know one another through the Network and support each other in creating amazing lives.

Transformational Technology - This is my new business and line of work. Combining my technical expertise, marketing savvy and personal growth to assist others in living their dreams with passion! I have chosen to work with entrepreneurial women like yourselves, because of your energy, strength and determination. You are the one’s that can truly make a difference in this world. If there is any way I can assist you please let me know. I am at your service!

Here’s just a little bit of who I am and my background to we can start to get to know each other.

I am married to a amazing man Scott. Playing Golf is one of our passions.

I have two wonderful step-sons Adam (who is proudly serving our country as a US Marine) and Westin (who is a very talented high school athlete).
I also have a new puppy named Sandy

and a kitty named Jones.

I started my career in Hollywood, CA as a Production Coordinator for ABC Television in the On Air Promotion Department after graduating from Colorado State University with a degree in Speech Communications.

While in College, I was part of the Program Board – CSU Productions - bringing in Lectures, Concerts and Special Events to campus where I started an entertainment newspaper to help promote our events. I also took a year off to travel the world in Cast D 86 of Up With People. Up With People, if your not familiar with it, is an international organization that builds bridges of peace and understand among people of all nations while traveling around the world performing a musical show and getting involved in the communities we visit. This was one of the most amazing experiences of my life.

I loved traveling so much that after working for two years at ABC I took a year off to backpack around Europe. When my year was up - I wasn’t quite ready to come home yet so I went to work with Up With People traveling and living on the road for another two years. I promoted Up With People in 6 different countries and also spend a year as an Educational Coordinator.

Eventually, it was time to settle down, well sort of, so I moved to Boston, MA for four years. It was here that I got very involved with personal growth and development by participating and working on staff for Landmark Education. As the computer industry took off I found that I had a natural computer savvy and the ability to take complex technical information and make it easy to understand. I worked for IBM for several years and couple other training companies before starting my own business about 6 Years ago. Since then I have traveled around the county giving seminars as well as training locally.

In the last year or so, I have be putting my focus on learning everything I possibly can about the Internet and marketing on-line and now it’s time to share what I have learned and I now have an amazing group of women to share it with.

Again Thanks for becoming a part of the Network and I look forward to getting to know you personally!

Here’s to your success and living the life of your dreams!!!
