Practice Manager
Karen works as the Practice Manager at our Minneapolis hospital. She strives to make sure the pets have the best care possible while at the hospital.
Before working at Vet Partners, Karen was a practice manager at a busy pet hospital, but traded her corporate job, because the small business mentality aligned with her values and purpose. She is a Certified Veterinary Technician and has worked in small animal veterinary practice since 2009.
In her free time, Karen can be found hanging with her dogs, relaxing, and exploring all the fun Minneapolis has to offer.
