Karla can hold her breath for more than two minutes. She grew up freediving off the California coast and learned how to stay underwater to catch native sea snails called abalone. These days she spends less time holding her breath and more time creating breathtaking content for clients as a writer at Interactive Strategies.

Karla is a digital media expert with experience in business consulting and politics. An admirer of prose and well-written emails, she is a sucker for a good story and knows how writing can move people to action. Her aptitude for email marketing, social media management, and fundraising strategy advances her clients’ missions, including Defenders of Wildlife, Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership, and Auburn Seminary.

In her free time, Karla enjoys the outdoors, hiking, skiing, backpacking and climbing. Her indoor hobbies include sipping lattes and single-origin coffees, binge-reading library books on her Kindle, following recipes very closely and perfecting her headstand.
