A message-maker at heart and a curious elf by nature, Cara has led strategic communications and branding efforts for nonprofits and businesses of all sizes for nearly 40 years. Her participation in fundraising for the arts in Maine includes positions and projects with Maine Media Workshops + College, Waterfall Arts, Center for Maine Contemporary Art, and Bay Chamber Concerts. Her first home in Maine was a primitive farmhouse in the Midcoast with a three-seater privy. Cara returned to Maine full-time in 2022 after many back-and-forth years to New Mexico—most recently from Santa Fe, where she worked in editorial and creative direction for Arts/Lifestyle magazines. Cara is a graduate of Boston University’s College of Communication and a member of the National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO). Her favorite time of day is coffee time. Her greatest surprise about Bangor, so far, is $4 all-day parking on Columbia Street. Cara lives in Bucksport with a view of the Narrows Bridge from many windows.
