In 1998, Tara transformed her life. She lost 60 lbs., left her abusive husband, moved her sons to the Bay Area, and enrolled in the prestigious University of California, Berkeley School of Law (Boalt Hall).
Immediately after graduating from law school in 2001 Tara, now a 25-year-old single mom of two boys bought her first home in the Bay Area. After leaving a diverse law practice ranging from legal malpractice defense to corporate and real estate law, she began a unique real estate sales practice.
Realizing that several demographic groups—single women, seniors, investors, and bilingual clients—were being underserved, Tara melded insights from her psychology background, legal and negotiating savvy, and real estate expertise to innovate a system which she has now used to coach hundreds of single women and investors to success at the endeavor of purchasing a home. Today, Tara’s passion is taking her system to women nationwide with {RE}think Real Estate, a brand of educational resources designed to transform women’s experience of real estate, and to inspire them to enhance their lives with property ownership.
