Hi! I'm Cara, a second-year journalism and political science student at Carleton University. I'm originally from Ottawa, and I've always been interested in media, current events, and staying informed about what's happening in the world. I chose to study journalism because I love learning about everything and hearing different perspectives and turning the things I am interested in into stories that people can connect with, and be informed with.
Before coming to Carleton, I spent my first year at Queen's University studying political science and English. My time at Queen's gave me the chance to explore my interests in politics and writing while getting involved in different projects and campus activities. There, I gained experience through working with an undergraduate research journal and a marketing internship, which helped me discover how much I enjoy writing, communication, marketing, and creating content.
Outside of school, I'm always looking for a reason to travel and explore somewhere new. I love spending my time with my friends and family, going to the gym, reading, and keeping up with my fashion and beauty. This year, I'm excited to join Her Campus Carleton as a member of the Social Media Team and get more involved in the Carleton community. I'm so excited to meet new people, create content, and be a part of a growing community!
