About Kara

Never one to be humble, I’m pretty good at what I do. As a communications professional with years of experience in connecting people and information, I’ve built up quite a skill set.

I am a creative and confident writer, out-of-the-box thinker, and technophile with extensive experience designing, developing and maintaining web sites. See my full employment history at LinkedIn or contact me (karamariek@gmail.com) for a copy of my resume.

I am primarily a communicator and information manager with strong skills in web communication, design and emerging technologies. I pay attention to trends in social media and how those trends intersect with public relations.

I have a master’s degree in communication from the State University of New York at Buffalo, where I focused on mass media, web communications and networks. Previous to that, I earned a bachelor of arts in political science from Le Moyne College in Syracuse, NY.

My favorite question is “Why not try it?” followed closely by “What’s the next big thing?”
