What does it take to lead a global brand while also raising a little human being?

 

As a career-focused woman, Kara Chomistek, a Partner at PARK Production House, spent her 20s building that part of her life up. Later, when her daughter came along, she knew she would have to find a way to be a present mom while still pouring energy into her work.
