Karen Pribbernow

Prepress Help Desk Specialist

How many years have you been with Walsworth? Over 23 years, since May 1996

Have you held any previous job titles with Walsworth? Prepress Technician, Prepress Supervisor, Prepress Technology Manager

The thing I love most about my job is… Being able to share my knowledge with customers, especially when it makes their job easier

The best customer interaction I’ve had at Walsworth was… I don’t have a “best” interaction – they’re all great!

Working at Walsworth, I’ve learned… How to really listen to the specific needs of each customer and offer support when needed

When I’m not working, I love to… Relax and unwind

An uncommon fact people might not know about me is… That I used to ride my own Harley and have ridden all over the country with my husband. We’ve been to the Sturgis, South Dakota Bike Rally over a dozen times and each trip has been very memorable. Someday, I’ll write a book about our journeys.

I get inspired by… Reading memoirs of people who have overcome adversities – like The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls and Etched in Sand by Regina Calcaterra, just to name a couple.

My favorite food is… Ice cream! I became a connoisseur back when I worked at Baskin Robbins – when a single-dip cone was only 15 cents!

My guilty pleasure is… Reading – pure and simple. I also like watching a good sci-fi movie.

The best vacation I ever took was… Back-packing in Europe for several months when I was 20 years old. It was a wonderful experience and I met a lot of people from many different cultures.
