MEET KAREN

Karen Cuskey-Hartman is more than a top-producing agent—she’s a ripple maker. As President of Givingmas, she leads with heart, strategy, and a deep belief in the power of community. A 30+ year Dallas resident, Karen blends real estate expertise with a passion for transformation—ensuring every space, client, and cause is left better than she found it.

Her journey began in award-winning advertising and philanthropy, where she mastered the art of storytelling and impact. After a life-altering health scare in 2015, Karen pivoted full-time into real estate, bringing her marketing genius and heart-centered approach to Coldwell Banker Global Luxury. Her work is known for sparking connection—whether she’s turning a home into an art gallery or aligning a listing with a local charity.

Beyond the business, Karen leads with service. At Givingmas, she champions dignity-driven support for Dallas families, offering a hand up—not a handout. She’s a founding force behind The Ripple Maker Foundation and Tacky Box, a kindness curriculum for kids, and a dedicated volunteer with Peace Pantries, ensuring students have access to food and hope.

Karen is also a proud member of The Live Local Group, a team of like-hearted agents committed to community-first real estate. Her guiding belief? “When one connector shows up, good things happen. But when a team of ripple makers shows up, we don’t just change zip codes—we shift futures.”
