“I am extremely honored to be selected as one of the NJBIZ Best 50 Women in Business,” stated Karen. “As a female entrepreneur of Hispanic heritage, I strive to be an example of what can be achieved through determination and hard work. Our successful completion of six acquisitions since 1997 has made us stronger and savvier, as well as given us the amazing talent and technical skills that allowed us to build on our strategy to be the best at what we do. Small businesses and entrepreneurs are the engines needed in order to drive Capitalism in our great country. It gives me both inspiration and joy to mentor others who are starting out to learn to make an impact, achieve success, and never take anything for granted.”
