Hi, I'm Kara.
I graduated from the Rochester Institute of Technology with a Bachelor's degree in Professional Photographic Illustration (Visual Media). Visual Media encompasses photography, graphic design, business management and marketing.
As a native of Rochester, NY, I have played an active role in the arts community. My dedication of the arts provided me with the opportunity to have my photographs featured in many exhibitions.
In addition to my pursuit of quality media, I am a huge animal lover. I enjoy spending time with my pets and helping animals in need. I currently foster small animals for two of Rochester's local rescues and have helped many find new homes!
One of my serious passions is travel, where I am able to see different places and have new experiences. One of my favorite trips thus far was where I traveled across Utah, Wyoming, Montana, and Arizona in a car by myself for 2 weeks!
