About

My name is Karena Mallett

My passion for healthcare is rooted in a deep belief in its power to transform lives and communities. My goal is to use my skills to make a meaningful impact in my community.

As an Ethics Officer with the Health Research Ethics Board of Alberta, I have gained a thorough understanding of current healthcare practices and policies. It has also provided me with a broad understanding of ethical practices in healthcare and human research through direct collaboration with researchers and medical professionals. I am excited about the emerging trends in health research and the positive community impact they promise.

I have worked as a mental health professional in the past. This has given me insight into the intricate relationship between mental and physical health. This experience taught me that organization, creativity, and flexibility are paramount, as no two plans or children are alike. These lessons remind me to always prioritize the people I serve. This has instilled in me a deep sense of empathy and a commitment to promoting collaborative and holistic approaches to healthcare that address both physical and psychological dimensions.

My work experience in health research settings and as a mental health professional has provided me with valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities facing the industry today.

Throughout my academic and professional journey, I have been driven by a sense of duty to serve others. I am committed to making a positive impact as a leader in my community. I look forward to advocate for positive changes in the healthcare system and seek new leadership opportunities in my community.
