Pink Hearts in the Park

It has been a little gloomy here in Ohio but that didn’t stop me from visiting the park on my way to dinner downtown. On days like this, I make a point to wear something colorful to brighten my day.

I’m Tamara

I empower ambitious women of color and women-run businesses with the support and media strategies they need to thrive.
