Kara - Front Desk

Kara Ontiveros was born in Los Angeles, California and moved to Charlotte in 2001, after her father accepted a job offer that moved the family across the country. After graduating from South Mecklenburg High School (Class of 2007), Kara attended Brevard College. She returned Los Angeles to complete a semester long internship in Casting/Production through Boston University, where she interned for E! And HBO. She graduated from Brevard College in 2011 with a B.A. in Theater Studies and spent that summer as the Box Office Manager at the Eugene O’Neill Theater Center in Connecticut. 

Kara can be found most often at the front desk, though she has been known to wear several hats around the office. She enjoys reading and loves musicals, and can be frequently heard to sing along to the radio. She is also an avid fan of comic books and the Marvel superhero films.
