A graduate of the Bachelor of Commerce program from the University of Alberta in 1992, Karen articled with an international firm in Edmonton to earn her Chartered Accountant designation. Karen’s time in the profession has been split between both public and private practice. She spent two years in New Zealand with a public firm, before returning to Canada where she then spent seven years in the industry. Karen moved from Calgary to Grande Prairie in 2004 and resumed her career in public practice with a local firm, focused on private companies and not-for-profit groups. In September 2014, Karen started her own accounting practice and remains committed to providing high-quality accounting and taxation services. Karen participates in a number of community groups, including the Rotary Club of Grande Prairie, where she served as President in 2010/11 and is currently Chair of the Dream Home Lottery committee as well as Inbound Youth Exchange Counsellor. She is a member of the Audit Committee of the Grande Prairie and District Catholic School Board, president of the Grande Prairie Catholic Band Parents Association and a past member of the Chartered Accountants Education Foundation.
