Karen volunteers her time to numerous organizations, including the Advisory Board of the Salem State University Bertolon School of Business, Northern Essex Community College Foundation Board, and The Salem Partnership.
Karen is a graduate of the University of New Hampshire, where she earned a bachelor's in English, specializing in journalism. She loves politics, leadership, traveling, and all-things sports — especially the New England Patriots, Boston Bruins and the Danvers High School Falcons. She and her husband, Mike, live in Danvers and have two grown sons, Nick and Matt, and two rescue dogs, Freedom and Independence.
