<\/div><\/div>[divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”32″][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]Hi! I\u2019m Cara, an Eckerd College alumna<\/a> originally from the northern suburbs of Chicago. I graduated in 2024 with a Bachelor of Science in Marine Science<\/a>, and minors in Spanish<\/a> and Art<\/a>. During my time at Eckerd, I had the opportunity to conduct independent research, working alongside Dr. Cory Krediet<\/a>, which is currently under review for publication. I spent multiple winter terms abroad<\/a> traveling to Ecuador, the Gal\u00e1pagos Islands, and Salamanca, Spain. My experiences at Eckerd lead me to achieving my goal of living abroad, and post graduation I spent a year teaching English in Madrid, Spain.<\/p>\n

Outside of work you can often find me swimming, running, or reading\u2014let me know if you need a book recommendation! I love anything water-related and couldn\u2019t be more grateful to live so close to the beach. I\u2019m also an avid artist, and enjoy creating greeting cards for my friends and family in my free time.<\/p>\n

While marine biology will always hold a special place in my heart, it is a great pleasure to help students determine if Eckerd is the right fit for them. I\u2019m excited to have returned to Florida\u2019s sunshine after my time abroad and to assist you as you navigate your college journey. As a proud member of Phi Beta Kappa<\/a> and a firm believer in the value of a liberal arts education<\/a>, I\u2019m here to answer any questions you may have. Whether you\u2019re curious about the application process or want to know more about life at Eckerd, don\u2019t hesitate to reach out\u2014I\u2019m happy to help!<\/p>\n
