Rep: Orgreen & Oliver Goldsmith

A native Minnesotan, Tamara began her optical career in 2004 as an optician in her hometown of Bemidji, MN, while studying art. Years later, she became ABO Certified and established roots in Minneapolis, where she managed various optical boutiques and connected with other “frame-minded” individuals through her love of eyewear, window installations, and frame styling. In 2019, her passion for eyewear and travel led to her current role as the Midwest frame rep for Ørgreen Optics. The 10K Frames Show was born from her desire to expand independent eyewear throughout the Midwest. When she’s not on the road, she enjoys creating and designing new things (including the 10K Selfie Wall), listening to podcasts, getting nail art manicures, and exploring new coffee shops.
