Karen came to Sky with a varied and eclectic work background. She has worked in the insurance and medical industry for many years and is very excited to share her knowledge and experience. She was thrilled when this position “found her”. She states that she never actually applied for the job with Sky but somehow we received her resume. Once she met with Jenny and Erik, she knew she “was supposed to be here” and now that she has joined our family, she knows she made the right decision.
