Karen Pettingell

I worked in the Finance industry for 20+ years at one of the largest mutual fund companies in the country where I held several different positions. When the company offered an early retirement package in 2021, I jumped at the chance.

I spent a year trying to figure out what my life would look like post corporate America.  I found myself somewhat in a daze at first, considering I went from working 40+ hours a week to 0 overnight. After floundering a bit, I decided to learn how to play pickleball and dedicate some time to volunteering at a dog shelter as well as the American Cancer Society.

I decided after a year that I would casually look for a part-time job.  After meeting the team and learning about the role, I knew that I would fit in well and the rest is history.  I started in November 2022, and I consider myself lucky to be part of such a great team.

When I am not in the office I enjoy traveling, pickleball, volunteering and spending time with my family.
