At Optima Office, we’re powered by smart, dedicated professionals who bring heart, perspective, and drive to everything they do. This month, we’re shining the spotlight on Tammy, one of our brilliant Assistant Controllers whose career has spanned everything from Fortune 500 audits to tech start-ups and non-profits.
Tammy joined Optima after years of running her own consulting practice. What drew her in? The chance to collaborate, share knowledge, and grow with a like-minded team.
From morning routines that prioritize fresh air over phone screens, to her passion for meaningful change through organizations like Solutions for Change, Tammy brings intention and authenticity to everything she does.
Let’s take a deeper look at Tammy’s journey, her wisdom, and the habits that keep her thriving.
After being a consultant on my own for over a decade, I was happy to become part of an organization that offers the opportunity to collaborate with colleagues and to tap into the unique knowledge base that they each have.
"Sky before screen" is a concept I recently learned about and have been following, which is simple but makes a big difference: In the morning, step outside for a breath of fresh air and appreciate nature, before connecting with your computer or phone.
Rather than starting something from scratch, I would love to pour more resources into an organization I already support: Solutions for Change.
It is people, and not things, that matter most.
It’s difficult to step out of my comfort zone, but it’s always worth it.

Making a difference in people’s lives.
My husband, son, and I are on a quest to see a game played in each of the 30 MLB stadiums. We’ll be visiting T-Mobile Park this summer when the Padres face the Seattle Mariners.
I would like to not require sleep, so that I could accomplish more things.
