Associate of the Month

Karen’s journey began in Chicago, where she was born and raised. She then moved to Michigan to raise her family of three, dedicating herself to being a stay-at-home mom, a role she considers her greatest accomplishment. In 2013, she moved to Texas to be closer to her family, where her passion for helping people continued to shine.

Karen’s inspiration stems from her love of assisting others. She spent years as a personal assistant to Sun City residents and transitioned to working in Independent Living after COVID-19. Her compassion and big heart make her a beloved member of our community. Karen finds immense joy in her job, likening it to having a large, extended family. She enjoys getting to know the residents and making a positive impact on their lives, which reminds her of caring for her own mother back in Illinois.
Karen has been happily married to James for the past two years. Together, they share a love for their family, including their three granddaughters and their beloved dogs: a Maltipoo named Angel and two Chihuahuas, Tigger and Henry. In her spare time, Karen enjoys helping James walk dogs, gardening, decorating, crafting, and taking vacations.

Working at The Oscar has been a fulfilling experience for Karen. She appreciates the happy atmosphere created by both the residents and her coworkers. Her dedication and positive energy make her a standout employee, and we are thrilled to recognize her as Employee of the Month.

Congratulations, Karen, on this well-deserved recognition. Your unwavering commitment to helping others and your joyful spirit inspire us all.
