Monday - Saturday: 12N - 6PM

Married to Jim since 1981, they have a daughter, Kim, and a furry boy named Quinn, who is always dapper in his tuxedo. Karen’s Mom lives with them in Forestville, with her two little dogs.

Raised on all kinds of jazz, she also listens to other styles of music. Karen enjoys traveling, live music, reading, movies, her church family, and relaxing with friends.

Originally from Seattle, Karen’s radio career began in the mid-80’s, after graduating from Los Angeles Broadcasters (The LAB) in Hollywood, California. Immediately upon completion of broadcasting school, she left Southern California to join Jim, who had found employment in Petaluma 10 months earlier. Karen was hired by local station KVRE and has been on the air at numerous stations in San Francisco and north of the Golden Gate.

She came on board here in May of 1998 as one of the weekend hosts at KZST while she waited for an opening at KJZY, where she has happily plied her trade ever since.

Along with her on-air duties, she is also Creative Director for our 9-station group, managing in-house commercial production.
