Karen attended Springfield College in Massachusetts following a course of study for Physical Education and Recreation, and has an extensive background in sports coaching and fitness training.

She has been an avid sports and fitness buff ever since childhood, playing and coaching a variety of sports including softball, basketball, golf, field hockey, volleyball, indoor track…and, of course, tennis!

She has several certifications, including NAYS (National Alliance for Youth Sports), NSPA (National Sports Performance Association), and NASM (National Academy of Sports Medicine).

Karen has been coaching for over 30 years and enjoys working with all ages and skill levels, and finds it especially rewarding working with younger athletes as they get started in athletics.
