Meet the Business Owner: Karl-Erik and Karen L.
Hi there! I’m Karl-Erik Leesment, founder and lead writer at KStar Professional Writing Services. Born and raised in Southern California, I’ve been passionate about writing for as long as I can remember. While studying at UC Irvine, I started helping friends with resumes as a side gig, and they landed amazing opportunities. I quickly realized how powerful the right words can be and turned that passion into a calling.
Today, KStar is one of Southern California’s top-rated resume services, trusted by professionals across industries from entry-level to C-suite. We don’t use templates or recycled buzzwords. Every resume, cover letter, and LinkedIn profile is tailored, ATS optimized, and written by hand by experienced local writers. We never outsource.
To me, there’s nothing better than hearing a client landed a dream job with our resume, often one that pays more and fits their goals. Helping people feel confident and career-ready is what drives me every day!
