Lara has since joined the music faculty at Harold Washington College (Chicago City College) and Loyola University Chicago where she teaches courses in piano, jazz, world music, and humanities. A versatile artist with a passion for expressive communication through music, Lara performs with her jazz trio, Tango Espejo, Poste-AM Quintet, Bossa Nuevo, Beat Kitchen, Mark O’Connor Quintet, and many other projects. She has performed in venues such as The Jazz Showcase, Andy’s Jazz Club, Chicago Symphony Center, Krannert Center, Pickstaiger Hall, Peoria Bach Festival, Bowery Poetry Club,  and the Montreal Jazz Festival.
