It all began in the 2000s, when Tamara was a fledgling film executive in New York City. She had a promising career that involved acquiring and developing such masterpieces as The Squid and the Whale, Dirty Dancing 2: Havana Nights, and Saw, but everything began to change when she met some friends in the weirdly wonderful world of advertising. So entertained by their stories and ideas, she decided to cast her film career aside and try her hand at producing commercials.

She now has 20 years of production experience, and has brought integrated campaigns to life for top-tier agencies and brands. Her credits include work for Samsung, Google, Meta, Verizon, TJX, Mastercard, Mattel, NY Lottery, Ulta, Timberland, Bacardi, and many others.

Based in NYC, where she grew up, Tamara is also happy to collaborate with agencies and brands in other cities.
