She was a 1986 graduate of Willoughby South High School. She earned her bachelor's degree in social work at Bowling Green State University in 1990/ Tara began her career in social work with that is now Lake County Jobs and Family Services. She then dedicated her career to assisting the elderly and was employed by several nursing homes around and near Lake County.

Her passion for caring for others evolved through volunteer work at The Hope Chest in Painesville, WomenSafe Resale Shoppe in Chesterland, and the Geauga Humane Society Rescue Village in Russell Township where she was most recently employed. In her spare time, Tara enjoyed soaking up the sun, dog walking, and pet sitting for friends. Tara's last act of compassion was to donate her corneas and tissue to help improve the lives of others.
