Karen Mullaney, CPA

Chief Financial Officer

After earning my accounting degree from Boston College I began my career at Ernst and Young. With the strong foundation built from working at a large firm I drew on my experience growing up in a small family business to develop a boutique CPA practice that I ran for over 20 years. I came to Boston Lab Services looking for an opportunity to focus on the growth and prosperity of a business with like-minded leadership and commitment to creating a culture of excellence. The finance teams take pride in generating accurate, timely reporting to support strategic decisions and perpetuating an environment of continuous process improvements.

When I am not thinking about debits and credits I enjoy golf, yoga and watercolor painting. I also volunteer as President and Board Chair for The NVNA & Pat Roache Hospice House and as Trustee for The James Library and Center for the Arts.
