Kara grew up in Pittsburgh, PA with her two sisters. Her family has since transplanted to a warmer climate and now lives in Charlotte, NC. Kara has been a proud New Yorker for the past 10 years.
Kara has been performing for as long as she can remember. She started playing piano and violin at the age of 3. Her love for music brought singing, dance, and theatre into her life at an early age as well. She pursued her love of theatre and graduated Suma Cum Laude from Point Park University in only 3 years.
Kara's favorite role is playing Aunt Kara to her 4 amazing nephews and 1 perfect niece. She tries to spend as much of her free time with them as possible.

SISTER ACT
Papermill Playhouse
APRIL 1–APRIL 26, 2020
Based on the 1992 hit film, this feel-good musical comedy smash sizzles with powerful music, spectacular dancing, and a story brimming with heart. The madcap plot is set in motion when disco diva Deloris Van Cartier witnesses a murder and must go into hiding in a convent—where she clashes, hilariously, with cloistered life. Deloris inspires the sisters with her soulful style, but the church choir’s newfound fame attracts the attention of the bad guys. Featuring original music by Tony and eight-time Oscar winner Alan Menken (Newsies, Beauty and the Beast, Little Shop of Horrors), the musical was nominated for five Tony Awards, including Best Musical.
