Karen Michael
Karen Michael was born and raised in Santa Fe and graduated from UNM in Albuquerque with a BSN in Nursing. She is a long-time board member and volunteer legislative coordinator with the Animal Defense League of Arizona, a statewide animal protection organization that has worked for over thirty years to protect and defend animals in our state.
She is also one of the Founders of Humane Voters of Arizona and writes its legislative report card on animal issues each year, candidate questionnaires and provides institutional history on legislative and other issues to many organizations in the local, regional and national humane communities. She hates public speaking more than root canals, but could not pass-up the opportunity to speak at Animal Law Section CLE’s about ADLA’s Legislative Program.
