Karen is a strong communicator and always had a very upbeat, positive approach to challenges she faced in her role. Her in depth knowledge of lab requirements and protocols was excellent and she was competent in aligning the organization to appropriate quality initiatives.

 It is rare to find someone as passionate about quality as Karen.  I had the pleasure of working with Karen at LifeLabs, in the Quality and Regulatory affairs department. I was always particularly impressed with her dedication- no matter how busy she was, or how small the issue, she always made herself available to help, to answer questions, or provide resources. Karen was also very passionate about doing the right thing for the right reasons, and was never afraid to defend the quality of her lab.  Karen would be a valuable asset to any team.

Technical Quality Specialist- Hematology at LifeLabs Medical Laboratory Services

 As VP of Business Development for Rocky Mountain Analytical, I was very aware of the critical role Karen played in maintaining quality, managing accreditation, and ensuring the staff were properly trained in quality and safety procedures. What most impressed me though, as a BD exec, was how in-tune Karen was with the business aspects of the lab. She regularly offered excellent suggestions on how to capture more business, and kept business critical processes foremost in her mind. She was always pleasant, diligent, cheerful and was a great asset to the company. .
