What Kara brings to the room
Kara’s perspective comes from lived experience, former law-enforcement work, survivor advocacy, television production, investigative hosting, and years spent speaking and training on ethics in true crime.
She helps teams identify questions that are easy to miss from inside a project—around language, consent, survivor agency, family dynamics, participant relationships, and the impact that remains after production ends.
Ways to work together
True-Crime Ethics Training
Training for production teams, journalists, organizations, and professionals working with real crime stories.
Survivor-Informed Consultation
Perspective on participant experience, language, story development, and how creative or production decisions may affect survivors and families.
Production + Story Advising
Support during development or production when a project would benefit from lived experience, investigative perspective, and ethical guidance.
Compelling and responsible do not have to be opposites.
The strongest work can be engaging without losing the humanity of the people at its center. Kara’s role is not to hand teams a rigid rulebook, but to help them see where storytelling decisions intersect with real people, real consequences, and long-term impact.
