After graduating from Boston's Emerson College , Tara moved to San Francisco for the tacos at La Taqueria and the cable car rides. During her 10 years in the Bay Area, Tara worked on a variety of projects for boutique video production companies, broadcast affiliates and cable. She gained vital production experience in everything from commercials to industrials to television shows that aired both locally and nationally.
In 2000, Tara joined the award winning cooking show Bay Café. As senior producer, she received a James Beard nomination for her work on an episode that focused on Yosemite National Park and the Awahanee Hotel. After moving to Vermont to get closer to all that maple syrup, she began working at WCAX TV in the creative services department writing and producing award winning commercials and local news promotion. And now with Cast Iron Media, Tara brings her creativity and varied experience producing video to small businesses and the online market.
