Karen joined the Kenora All Nations Health Partners recruitment and retention committee in July 2018 as the first fulltime community recruiter for physicians and healthcare professionals in Kenora, Ontario. The role was created through partnerships among the First Nations and organizations in the community and she is proud to be part of this historic juncture. She graduated from the concurrent B. SC/MLT program at the University of Windsor/St. Clair College in Windsor, Ontario and worked as a Medical Laboratory Technologist throughout Northwestern and Central Ontario for sixteen years.
Her career in healthcare provided incredible experience working in a variety of communities with diverse patient populations, physicians and professional staff which has been extremely beneficial in my new recruiting role, especially being able to relate first-hand to what relocating feels like. I am enjoying being part of people’s journey and helping them find the right fit and work-life balance.
