Hi, I’m Cara.
I’m a Michigan-based copywriter.
A creative and a problem-solver who brings a little warmth and a lot of care to every project.
Put me in a supportive, well-orchestrated team, and I light up. That’s where my best ideas spark.
But even when the deadlines are wild, the brief is blurry, or legal feels…spicy, I’m patient, determined, and fully dependable. The one who brings the “we got this” energy.
And I’m eager to bring that to you.
My work
(Just a handful of which I’m most proud)

She also did a great job representing the team in both internal and client interactions. She was professional, thoughtful, and confident. I’d gladly work with Cara again and would recommend her to any team looking for a strong, dependable writer and teammate."

"Cara came into my team in the middle of some pretty intense workloads on a high-demand client. I was immediately impressed by the the questions she was asking and the steps she was taking to get up to speed as fast as possible.
As a writer, she gets it. She was able to consume past work and come to grips with the tone and technical requirements of the brand.
Aside from all of that, she's a great person. She approached her new team and client with warmth, curiosity, and kindness. Cara is great and she has done and will continue to do great things.

"Cara handled an incredibly complex and intricate piece of business with ease and grace. When you have three different legal teams scrutinizing your writing, it can be easy to lose confidence in your words but Cara was always ready to find a solution. She is confident and assertive, when she needs to be. I could always count on her to make a last minute tweak or to walk me through her thought process before a client presentation.
Cara is a valuable asset to any team and she is always willing to go the extra mile. I'm extremely proud to have worked with her and would recommend her time and time again."

"One of our fun and successful collaborations was a campaign that required both technical understanding and creative finesse. Cara grasped the nuances quickly and delivered copy that resonated with both our creative directors and clients. What impressed me most was her ability to tackle challenging subjects with confidence while remaining humble enough to ask thoughtful questions when needed."
Ray Sarte, Creative Team Lead and Art Director, Leo Burnett Detroit
