Kara Haupt. 
Brooklyn, NY.





I’m a writer, designer, and creative director. 

I write and produce two weekly newsletters—one about home cooking and sustainability (Home Food) and the other about fashion, design, and interiors (Saltine). 

I was most recently the Senior Director of Art and Photography at NBC News where I ran the editorial design, art, and photography teams for the digital platforms of NBC News, MSNBC, and TODAY. Before NBC I was at The New Yorker where I art directed the website’s illustration and photography.
