Complementing her extensive skill set is a Certificate in Project Management from DePaul University, with aspirations to soon complete a Certificate in Paralegal Studies.

While Tamara's path has led her through brief stints in Seattle, WA, and Atlanta, GA, she now proudly calls Uptown, Chicago, her home.

Her journey has led to exciting roles as both an Interior Home Designer and a Kitchen Designer, and as a home stager during the frenetic housing boom of 2021.

Her latest venture, "This Class Picture," is an engaging podcast inspired by a 1979 group photo featuring her classmates. Within the podcast, they share their experiences, from humble urban beginnings in one of Chicago's most racially diverse communities, to their current positions in life, all while exploring the challenges they've encountered along the way.
