Tara in a nutshell

I’m from I grew up in the North Shore of MA but, I've been living in the Somerville area since 2016.
My education The University of Alabama (BS, Interior Design); NESAD at Suffolk University (MA, Interior Architecture)
Why PCA? PCA has great energy! It's refreshing to be part of a community that is prideful of their employees and the amazing work that they produce.
My earliest interior design memory I was constantly re-doing my bedroom as a child. My poor dad entertained me and repainted every summer! One year, my bedroom was light and hot pink stripes...yikes.
I’m drawn to design because of the impact it has on people without them even realizing it.
My favorite aspect of working with clients is seeing them get excited when their vision comes to fruition.
On Saturday mornings, you can usually find me in a Pilates class or on a weekend trip!
The nerdiest thing I do in my spare time is read a lot of historical fiction books!
SketchUp or Revit? Revit!
Quote that guides me right now "Everything in life is temporary." This reminds me to be fully present wherever I am in my life.
If you were a pantone swatch, what color would you be? Something minimal but comforting - maybe Warm Gray 1C.
Name a few of your daily habits Coffee, (very in depth) skincare routine and reading before bed.
My best vacation A family trip to my grandmother's hometown in the Czech Republic. I learned so much about my family that I never knew!
