Tara Criscuolo (she/her)
ABOUT ME
Hi there! I’m Tara Criscuolo, a brand marketer; mental health educator; and disordered eating speaker, writer, and resource provider based in Portland, OR. I've recovered from an eating disorder, and my healing journey – paired with the loss of a close friend to suicide – spurred my passion for normalizing mental health, dismantling diet culture, and creating a world that's safe for everyone to show up as their authentic selves.
I kicked off my marketing career at the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP). After four years of working to save lives and bring hope to those affected by suicide, I moved from New Jersey to Oregon to spearhead marketing for Girls Inc. of the Pacific Northwest. Currently, I'm leading marketing efforts for a local creative company.
When I'm not working, I spend my time volunteering for Project HEAL as the National Blog Manager, AFSP Oregon as a Board Member, NAMI Multnomah as a Mental Health Educator, and formerly ANAD as a Peer Recovery Mentor; compiling resources for those struggling with disordered eating; reading; hiking; playing tennis; and snuggling my rescue pup Mazie.
I'd love to chat about opportunities in:
-
Cause-based marketing
-
Mental health and/or disordered eating speaking or writing engagements
My portfolios can be found at the links above, and details about my experience and skillsets are available on LinkedIn. Thank you for stopping by!
