WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING
“You have been the easiest designer to work with.” Nicole Gotwols, Sony Ericsson
“Tara possesses natural gifts that I wish were inherent within the layers of managers in my employ, past and
present. She is a self starter who is driven, yet handles herself with respectful poise. She is highly organized,
seemingly without an effort to do so. She is a patient listener, quickly producing something of immense impact,
often based merely on our vague descriptions of “We want it to give the feeling of….” If there is a weakness about
Tara, it is that she lacks a higher, more visible platform from which to shine. She has a rare combination of
creative talent, communicative agility, and organizational prowess.” David Pineda, Owner, Concepta Consulting
“Nice job on the Best Places To Work special publication. It looks good and you packaged everything together
nicely. And great job handling those last minute (errrr should I say last second) changes with Station Casinos
dropping out of it. Well done.” Rob Langrell, Special Publications Editor, Greenspun Media Group
