Tara-Nicole, a multitalented American actress, achieved academic excellence by graduating high school with honors at the remarkably young age of 14. Prior to that, she had already made a name for herself in the industry by winning five Telly Awards for her impressive writing and directing skills at just 15 years old. By the time she turned 16, Tara-Nicole had written and directed an impressive six short films, two web shows, and had her work showcased at over 140 film festivals both nationally and internationally.
Some may recognize Tara-Nicole as "Tara Cosplay," the charismatic co-host of the popular show #Nerdtabulous, but her journey in the entertainment industry began much earlier. As a child actress, she made her debut at the tender age of four in a feature film, taking a brief hiatus to pursue her passion for gymnastics before returning to acting at the age of eight. Since then, she has appeared in a wide range of projects, including films, commercials, videos, and television shows.
As a member of a family with a strong literary background, Tara-Nicole began writing children's books at a young age and has since won the prestigious Young Author's contest three times. When she was just 11 years old, she branched out and wrote a screenplay entitled "My Name Is...Anna," which marked the beginning of her career as an independent filmmaker. This film has also been used by eating disorder treatment centers, aligning with Tara-Nicole's original goal for the project. At the age of 14, she signed her first distribution deal for one of her films, "Sybling Rivalry," a dark, horror-comedy that showcased her versatility as a filmmaker.
