hi, i'm tara!
my love for creative work was born from my modestly successful tumblr account when i was 12. i had superimpose from the app store, a cracked ipad, a deep obsession with pop culture, and a dream. as a middle schooler, my full-time job was making edits and posters, creating content calendars, initiating collaborations, and you know, being a 7th grader.
i’m always happy to trade life stories over coffee or greasy breakfast food, but here’s what you should also know about me!
★ i’m not afraid of committing to hard things because i’ve had bangs for over 7 years!
★ my two cats are my greatest collaborators. if i had no one to walk over my keyboshwif— sorry, keyboard—while i was working, i don’t think i’d ever be able to get any work done!
★ i’ve worked as a server and barista for about 6 years, which means i’ve gotten very good at reading people, remembering tiny details, juggling approximately 47 things at once, and pretending everything is completely under control. turns out, those instincts come in handy when you’re trying to make something people actually care about, too.
