Karen Elizaga, a top executive coach and author, works to inspire, motivate and empower clients and readers to achieve optimal performance and success in their business and personal lives. Karen started her career as a corporate lawyer, working for a top firm in New York, and moved on to the executive teams of two technology start-ups in London, England. After years of long hours and little self-satisfaction, she decided to switch gears and pursue what truly fulfilled her. Listening to her instincts, Karen founded a business she was truly passionate about, Forward Options. She is also the board chair of Womankind, a 35 year-old non-profit organization, which works with survivors of domestic violence, human trafficking and sexual violence, focusing on the refuge, recovery and renewal of these survivors.

1. Would you or would you not want to visit the place written about in the “36 Hours in…” article? Explain why you will or will not go.   Yes i will visit “Brooklyn” because even i live in Brooklyn i do not go to the places that in 36 hours like the parks, kings theater, and also the food that from Brooklyn, and in Brooklyn there are a lot of places to check out and most of them have some interesting history.
