Kara

My name is Kara and I have worked in Healthcare for over 10+ years and I have 7 years of Office Manager experience. At Building Blocks I am committed to helping oversee all daily operations which allows the clinical staff to focus on our top priority, which is to assure that our families receive the highest levels of quality care. Of all the office settings I’ve worked in, the Pediatric setting will always be my favorite. Watching these kids grow and reach their full potential is such a beautiful thing to witness everyday. I’ve been married for 3 years to my husband, Ryan. And I recently became a mother to the most handsome little human named Levi! In my free time I try to embrace what Michigan has to offer by boating in the summer, and snowboarding or snowmobiling in the winter.
