Meet Karen Larsen

Karen Larsen has worked as the Office Manager at Sigma Tau Delta for 13 years and loves what she does. She has a twin sister with the same married name! What are the odds? Karen has a very spoiled crippled cat at home who runs the show. She once owned a Bed & Breakfast and wishes she could go back in time. Karen has been happily married for 15 wonderful years! While she doesn’t consider herself a Harry Potter “fan”, she did read the first four books aloud to her daughter and has all the movies, but she’s only seen the first one!

1. My favorite movie is Overboard.
