Tammira Taylor
Originally from rural Wisconsin, Tammira has lived in Albuquerque for over 20 years and considers herself a true Burqueña. She loved learning about New Mexico in various geography and planning courses, and by diving right into the experiences that the state has to offer. Tammira earned a Master of Science in Geography from UNM and works as a GIS professional. Her family is always up for an adventure; you can find Tammira, her husband, and two boys camping and hiking, visiting museums, or attending an Isotopes game. Tammira loves learning, coffee, all things geospatial, antiquing, cooking, DIY, and curling up on the couch with her boys to watch a Friday night movie.
