​​
Karen Little, founder of Tips4LovingLife, is a veteran technical writer, illustrator, and software designer with decades of experience making complex tools and concepts accessible. She’s known for bridging the gap between creativity and technology—whether through enterprise training, public education, or hands-on design.
​
A published author and former enterprise-level web developer, Karen began her career in the early days of personal computing. From pioneering user documentation and interface design to founding Office Technology Academy, a Milwaukee-based non-profit that trained low-income individuals in digital skills, Karen has always prioritized practical empowerment through technology.
​​
She later ran her own consultancy, Clear Concepts, advising Fortune 500 clients like Standard & Poor’s, Nielsen Ratings, KPMG, and UBS Financial Services on workflow automation, tech adoption, and interface usability.
​
Today, based in the New York City area, Karen has shifted her creative energy into character development, tutorial design, and animation training—combining her technical know-how with a lifelong love of drawing and storytelling.
​What’s Next?
Karen is currently available for:
​
-
Freelance tutorial development (video, web, or print)
-
Training and educational material design
-
Speaking engagements on creativity, technology, and folk art
She’s especially interested in opportunities where she can combine her talents as a visual educator, explainer, and systems thinker.
