Meet Karen Moore

 

Karen Moore brings 30 years of corporate experience to the school from Ford Motor Company, where she gained broad business experience across the company including corporate strategy, logistics and other disciplines. Her work included many years of global responsibilities and travel. After an early retirement, Karen returned to Ford as a global consultant; she also led operations at a local technology company; and did logistic and supply chain consulting at the largest water company in the U.S.

 

"I am very happy to have this opportunity to lead the school into its renaissance of growth with an eye on the future," said Moore. "I am a product of the all-girl Catholic high school tradition and highly value its philosophy. Tracey and I have lots of great ideas and I am thrilled to be working alongside such an energetic and visionary Principal."
