About Me

Hello there! I'm Tara — a creator with a passion for visual storytelling. I earned a BA in Film, Television, and Theatre in 2019 from the University of Notre Dame and honed my craft at Grotto Network, a digital media outlet dedicated to telling uplifting stories to provide readers and viewers with an online space to recharge. Feel free to explore some of my favorite works from that time on my video page.

Throughout my career, I've had the incredible opportunity to work on Emmy-winning and Emmy-nominated short films, documentaries, teasers, highlight reels, podcasts, and engaging videos for social media platforms like YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok. Recently, I've also ventured into the world of wedding filmmaking, adding another exciting dimension to my portfolio.

When I'm not behind the camera or immersed in the editing room, you'll likely find me running along Chicago's lakefront, indulging in a captivating TV show, rooting for the Fighting Irish, or exploring the vibrant city with my friends.

Collaborating with other talented creatives and witnessing stories come to life fuels my excitement and dedication to this craft. Please reach out via the contact page if you’d like to work together!
