As a former Step Up associate at Achieve Twin Cities, Cara is thrilled to return to Achieve once again to support and connect students with employers and great career opportunities. 

In addition to her prior work with Step Up, Cara holds extensive professional experience in early childhood advocacy and community-building. She holds a bachelor’s degree in individualized studies from Winona State University and a master’s degree in advocacy and political leadership from Metropolitan State University.

Cara is an amateur monarch enthusiast and raiser, a little free librarian, and a community member and parent who likes to spend her free time watching absolutely wild reality television.
