Karen Wiens is now Director of FiberLocator Operations

karen-headshot2 (1)We are pleased to announce that Karen Wiens has been promoted to Director of FiberLocator Operations.  Karen started as part of the Marketing team and during her tenure here has taken on increasing levels of responsibility in the areas of FiberLocator product development and data acquisition, marketing, sales, and customer and carrier support.

As Director, Karen will continue to be the primary point of contact for all of the carriers who list their information in FiberLocator.  Carriers can still expect to receive quarterly requests from Karen to update their network maps, as well as lit building and data center listings in the database.

In Karen’s new role she will be working very closely with FiberLocator’s team of software developers to continue to improve FiberLocator’s features, functions and data sets.  One of the ways she would like to accomplish this is by increasing communication and transparency between our in-house team and our user base.  “We love customer feedback and we’d like to get more of it,” she discussed.  “I’d like to hear from our users about what features and functions could be added that would be most helpful to them.  We will be experimenting and exploring the best way to gather information from our users and also push information out to our user base.”  For start, this spring users can expect to see submarine and landing station data added back in, the ability for users to self-upload their own proprietary network information, and down the line — premium data sets, such as cell tower information.

Karen lives in Denver, CO with her husband, two children and two dogs.  She enjoys getting outside with her friends and family, scuba diving, motorcycling, horseback riding, snowboarding, camping, running/walking, sailing and is currently learning to surf.  In her free time, Karen also volunteers at a canine rescue organization and fosters dogs.
