TARA AVERILL

New York City

From fearless McGill University dropout to East Village actress to powerhouse entrepreneur, Tara Averill's journey defies convention. Raised between Fire Island and Mount Desert Island by a National Park Service superintendent, her independent spirit led her through Manhattan's theater scene and independent films—including an HBO pilot—while working in the city's frenetic restaurant industry.

Tara built a career through sales positions at Astrow Girl, Anonymous Content, and Epoch Films before founding RepresentationCo in 2011. Today, she leads a boutique talent firm representing advertising's elite creatives with operations spanning New York, Los Angeles, and London.

With two decades connecting visionary brands with storytelling talent, Tara founded Splitsville.com in 2014 - a platform for navigating relationship transitions with humor and zero judgment.

This Manhattan veteran turned Brooklyn homeowner brings her signature wit and hard-earned wisdom to her new podcast (launching in Sept 2025), engaging guests in raw conversations about life's pivotal moments while parenting her college-aged daughter and high school-aged son.
