Hi there, I'm Cara and am originally from New York and New Jersey. I have my Applied Associates Degree in Early Childhood Education from Raritan Valley Community College in New Jersey. After RVCC, I went to Rampo College and studied Graphic Design until I decided to leave school and take a break since though I enjoyed my courses and was good at them it wasn't my passion.
