Karen Crowell, Front Office Manager

Karen Crowell graduated from the Cornell Hotel School in New York in 1989 with a Bachelor of Science in Hotel Administration.Both her very specialized education and her positive attitude helped to launch her a successful career in the hospitality industry soon after her graduation.Karen worked with major hotel companies such as Four Seasons, Hilton and Westin.Her career gave her the opportunity to work all over the continent in major cities such as Philadelphia and Boston before bringing her back to her native Toronto where she spent several years teaching Hospitality Management.

Upon relocating to Halifax in 1995, Karen became part of the management team that re-opened the beautiful and historic Nova Scotia Hotel. (Today, it is known as The Westin Nova Scotian.) Eager for a change of pace, Karen thought it might be nice to "hang out at the beach for a year" so she accepted a position as Front Office Manager at White Point Beach Resort in 1997 where she attained her Certified Rooms Division Executive designation from the American Hotel and Motel Association.Well, that first year came and went and after many years here at White Point, this big-city girl has discovered that "hanging out at the beach" suits her just fine!
