Karen received her Bachelors degree in Athletic Training from San Diego State University where she competed in 400m hurdles. While living in California she worked with various sports teams to include the Olympic Mens and Womens Volleyball teams. Karen believed it was a natural progression in her path to return to school and she received her Masters degree in Physical Therapy at Old Dominion University in Virginia. In 2015, she became a Postural Restoration Certified Physical Therapist and has found this science to be a primary focus when assessing the human body and focuses on this in her treatment approach. In her free time she enjoys spending time with her family and pets as well as playing beach volleyball, paddle boarding, running and just about anything active.
