Kara Willits is originally from Omaha, Nebraska. After graduating from college with a degree in architecture from the University of Nebraska at Lincoln, she moved to New York City in pursuit of her passion- ACTING.Despite being a small town girl, Kara adapted almost over night and her perseverance paid off. Kara immediately began studying at T. Schreiber Studio, while modeling part time. She also studied with Tony Greco and feels exploring and perfecting her craft is essential.Because of her drive, ambition and raw talent, she has recently begun to land small roles in various projects, such as Criminal Minds on CBS. Kara relocated to Los Angeles to explore and audition for even more demanding and challenging roles. She currently resides in New York and is bicoastal. Kara has extensive training in dance and piano and enjoys singing, designing, history and most of all spending time with her family and friends, whom she considers her rock. She would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who have helped and supported her on her quest.
