ABOUT KARYN

Karyn Barsa portrait

I am uniquely qualified to help you build a thriving company.

 

I have led vibrant premium-brand organizations such as Patagonia, Smith & Hawken, Investors' Circle, and Coyuchi as a CFO, COO, and CEO.  I am an SEC-defined "financial expert" with extensive experience as a board member for multi-billion dollar public companies and for private companies. 

​

I have advised companies in various industries, including consumer products, franchise, biotech, and data and analytics.

My favorite moments in business are human-centered: helping CEOs solve problems with people, rather than for people - aligning stakeholders to achieve the financial and impact objectives that make a company relevant, effective, and memorable.
