Whether she's scaling a six-story fire-watch tower in the Indonesian forest to learn about sustainable land use, getting down in the muck on a robot-powered dairy farm in Northern Michigan, or donning a lab coat and goggles to find out about algae-derived biofuels, Tamara does whatever it takes to bring an engaging story to her viewers.

What I Love about Science

“I don't know anything with certainty, but seeing the stars makes me dream.”
         – Vincent Van Gogh

I blame my dad.

I spent my childhood stealing the Isaac Asimov books off his shelves, which sparked my curiosity about the universe and made me begin asking “what if” and “why,” even if I didn’t always understand the “how.” Luckily, my folks allowed me to experiment with everything from kitchen chemistry kits (yay explosions!) to pulling all-nighters to watch eclipses. I took a hiatus from science while pursuing my theater degree, but then my interest was reignited when I became obsessed with the Human Genome Project and all the ethical conversations around it. This eventually resulted in writing and performing Egg Child, a one-woman show about stem cell research. I am excited and intrigued by the moral repercussions of new STEM discoveries and the way they work themselves into our culture, our politics and our every day lives. Science is unique in that it allows us to project ourselves years into the future and imagine what it might hold, which in turn then allows us to reflect on what kind of people we want to be in the here and now.

As a writer, Tamara’s specialties include entertainment, science & technology, LGBTQ+ issues, and parenting in the digital age. She combines her hosting expertise and understanding of live events scripting shows for organizations such as the SAG-AFTRA Foundation, Disney’s D23, GLSEN, The Trevor Project, Alzheimer’s Association  - California Southland, the Institute for Advanced Study’s Einstein Gala, Point Foundation, and Lambda Legal.

Tamara earned her first WGA script writing credits on the acclaimed digital series EMMA APPROVED, for which she won a Primetime Emmy Award. She was the Associate Editor for Documentary Magazine, and has been published in/on Variety, Filmmaker Magazine, Ms In The Biz, ScientificAmerican.com Tubefilter.tv and indieWire, among others.

Tamara has been deeply involved in the digital content industry behind the scenes as well as onscreen.  She was the New Media Program Manager at the Writers Guild of America, West; and a Producer at entertainment marketing firm Crew Creative, where she strategized and produced online content for clients such as Discovery Channel and Overture Films. She honed her cinematic eye working extensively with film festivals as a programmer and event producer, including HBO’s U.S. Comedy Arts Festival, AFI FEST, the Maui Film Festival and the Los Angeles Film Festival.

In her free time, Tamara is a (very slow) runner, baker and amateur gardener. Huge thanks to her husband and daughter who are incredibly supportive of all of her endeavors!
