My name's Karen!

I am a proud Penrith local and resident of Penrith for over 30 years, where I live with my husband, Brendan. 

I was a local councillor and acted as Mayor of Penrith City council from 2015-2016 and again from 2020-2021. I am also incredibly active in many community organisations and committees in Penrith and within local government, including being a Life Member of the Australian Local Government Women’s Association NSW (ALGWA) holding positions as President, Vice President and Committee Member.

I am so incredibly proud to represent the people of Penrith in a Minns Labor Government and I hope I won't let you down!
