Karen has been a Drupal contributor since 2006. She was a co-maintainer of the Content Construction Kit (CCK), the author of the Date and Calendar modules, as well as the author or maintainer of 40+ other Drupal modules like Schema.org Metatag. The Content Construction Kit, a fundamental Drupal system that allows users to create any number of content types and populate them with custom fields, was added to Drupal Core in Drupal 6 and Drupal 7. The Date module was added to Drupal core in Drupal 8.

Karen has been actively involved in web development since the early days of the web. She created [ElderWeb](https://web.archive.org/web/20170206195822/https://www.elderweb.com/) in 1994 as one of the very first healthcare sites on the web and has created numerous personal sites, including a [personal blog site](https://www.karen-stevenson.com) that is currently focused on finance and the economy.

At Lullabot, Karen serves as Chairperson of our Board of Directors.
