Tamara Newman is a native to the Pacific Northwest.  Raised in Gresham and a graduate of Sam Barlow High School and Oregon State University, she has spent the majority of her adult life in the SE and SW area of Portland.

Tamara graduated with a degree in Merchandising Management where she went on to design apparel for some of the top sports brands in the country like Columbia Sportswear, Adidas and Puma. After 20+ years of being in the apparel industry as a designer and product manager she decided to take the leap into real estate.  A lifelong learner, she has combined her passion for remodeling, design and architecture with excellent customer service to provide a superb buying or selling experience.
