ABOUT ME
My name is Tara Connor, and I have had the privilege of calling Florida my home for 21 years, with 17 of those years in Brevard county and 8 in Rockledge. I've been blessed with two amazing children and a supportive husband of 17 years.
My journey since childhood has been driven by a passion for advocacy and service. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Social Work and a Master's degree in Counseling and Psychology. My experiences as a social worker and in human resources have allowed me to work with people from all walks of life. Throughout my career, I have remained committed to making a positive impact, whether through my professional roles or my extensive history of volunteer work. These experiences have inspired me to run for City Council. I believe that together, we can shape a brighter future for our city.
I am eager to hear directly from you about the issues that matter most to you. Your voices and concerns will guide my approach. Let's come together, strengthen our community and grow Rockledge roots! Thank you for your support and trust.
