Cara Thomas joined Spectrum News as the reporter for our North Country Newsroom in Potsdam and is now based in our Mohawk Valley Newsroom, covering the Utica, Rome and Herkimer County region.
Cara is originally from the Rochester area and began her news career with Spectrum News Rochester as a photographer. Cara graduated from Messiah College with a double major in broadcast journalism and theatre. During Cara's senior year of college, she spent the summer interning at Spectrum News. She learned a lot of great lessons about news and life during her experience. Working alongside such a talented crew encouraged Cara to pursue a career as a reporter.
Cara loves to report on positive stories happening in the Mohawk Valley and strives to look for a positive outlook in any situation. Outside of work, Cara loves to go to the theatre, read a good romance novel, and play board games with friends.
