Tamara Robertson
About
Tamara Robertson was born and raised in a military family in Eastern, NC. As a small child, she had a very vivid imagination and a wish to explore the world around her. She very early on became an observer of humans in their natural elements which added to her story telling ability. As a youth, she spent a large amount of time with her father watching Star Trek and tinkering in the garage – rebuilding engines, up – keeping the family cars and building / renovating homes.
She learned her love of machinery, as well as all things technical, from her time working with her dad.
