To challenge myself in an environment, work family oriented, and most importantly an accounting method that took me out of my comfort zone. To grow, better yet define who I will be, and this has streamed my ambition to explore and introduce my skillsets to become an asset to the company. I am me, I am different in all aspects, I will continue to learn and grow. Most importantly I will push for change, more modern development to catchup to the forever changing era.

Kara, Manager of Financial
Planning & Budgets

Meet Kara

“I joined Eversource 11 years ago as an intern in the Accounting division and then full time after graduating from Roger Williams University with a degree in Accounting. It was an easy decision to work here because I felt the culture was a perfect fit for me. Eversource puts its customers and employees first and I find there is a great work life balance here.
In my current role as Manager of Financial Planning & Budgets, I support multiple organizations to help them achieve their business objectives, strategic initiatives, and remain on track with their budget goals. While doing so, I learn a lot about different organizations and get to work with a diverse group of individuals. There is so much to learn about Eversource and the Utility industry and I continue to be challenged and learn something new every day.”
