I studied Healthcare Administration at UW-Eau Claire and have worked in healthcare Human Resources for my entire career. I have enjoyed getting to know students and employees and assist in their career growth and development. I am proud to currently work as a HR Business Partner at Regions Hospital, supporting our inpatient, emergency and respiratory care areas. On a more personal note, I am married with 2 daughters – one in college and the other in high school.
Employer: Regions Hospital, karen.e.powell@healthpartners.com

The thing I love most about the HOSA Board is getting to know the students and watching them grow and develop.
