Some leaders walk into a room with authority. Others carry something even greater—light. For over 18 years in the museum and arts world, Tamar has been that light.

Currently, she serves as Chief of Staff at The Museum of Black Women Innovators (MOBWI) and ARDX, shaping strategy while championing community and creativity.
