Cara is a seasoned, Emmy Award-winning editor and web designer who began her creative journey at a young age as a dancer. Raised by a writer and a musician, she was immersed in artistry from the beginning. Upon discovering the revelation of experimental film at the Kansas City Art Institute, her storytelling transformed from stage to screen, and she has been blazing her career path ever since.
Cara’s editing technique is a marriage of fluidity and insight. She is music-driven, intuitive and loves her work. She brings a passionate, authentic demeanor and heart-centered approach to her profession. She pairs tailored thoughtfulness with seasoned technical skills to elevate any team she joins in unexpected ways. Cara offers an inspired curiosity of what’s possible unbound by what may have been imagined to propel the creative vision from concept to it's highest form.
