Originally from Harlem NYC, Tarah discovered her love for all things home in 2010.

She studied communications at Long Island University and later became an advertising manager and part of the executive board of a Wall Street real estate firm where she helped many agents succeed. In 2015, she made Philadelphia her home.

 Tarah quickly made her mark in the City of Brotherly Love as an interior decorator and Contract Design Manager at BoConcept.

 With a flair for staging homes not only to sell - but to make them warm and welcoming, she used her expertise in the furnished rentals industry to spearhead the management of over 40 apartments in the metro Philadelphia area.

 Nonetheless, she loved meeting guests from all over the world. Outside of real estate and staging, she worked as a publicist handling many celebrity events in NYC and has also worked in investment and corporate relations for theknot.com.
