Karen Penticost
V.P. of Development and Operations
I have been at Envision since:
2015
Hobbies, activities, or interests:
My family is everything to me and I spend as much time as I possibly can with my three children. I am an avid animal lover. I have three rescues, "Stella" a Boston Terrier/Boxer mix, "Koda" an Australian Cattle/Lab mix with 3 legs & Gucci a 16 year old feral rescue cat. I also love to read, and music and the ocean are a very important part of my life.
Interesting story or fact about me:
On one of my recent trips to Nashville, I met a group of guys at Logan Airport right before we boarded our flight . They told me they had a band and had just finished a performance at the Kennedy compound in Hyannisport. I asked what the name of their band was and they told me that they were "The Temptations". I was obviously having a non-brain working moment when I asked them how they were able to take that name when the real Temptations are still touring. At that moment they gathered around me in the middle of the airport and sang "My Girl" and then asked if we could all take a group picture .
