I’m Cara Lee—a creative writer and strategic thinker.

I turn complex issues into creative stories that capture people’s interest and inspire change. More importantly, I’m a cat lover, loud laugher, snack eater, Scotch drinker and world traveler.

My work has been recognized by the AdAge and Modern Healthcare Marketing Impact Awards, AdFed The Show, the Digital Health Awards, the Telly Awards and the Minnesota Newspaper Association.
