Karen is a Senior Consultant and has spent the last 5 years lending her expertise and leadership to Cowan's TechLife® team. Karen's primary focus is supporting Canada's leading innovation companies - including large, multinational companies and start-up/scaling businesses. However, she is industry agnostic. She advises on domestic group benefit plan management and brings subject matter expertise in managing benefits for global workforces with international travel requirements. Karen loves complexity and thrives on helping clients solve multi-faceted challenges. She is a connector and a partner who helps you build a strategy not just one year but two, three or even 5 years out.

Lindsay is an industry expert in pension and retirement solutions. Lindsay helps clients, plan sponsors, and human resource departments, develop, manage and implement group retirement programs that best fit their needs. Lindsay services a broad spectrum of clientele and advises on DCPP, RRSP, TFSA, DPSP plans and more. While Lindsay enjoys strategy and design, her favorite part of her workday is connecting with our plan members directly as part of our Make Sense program which ensures every plan member has access to great advice.
