I am Tara Colquitt, The Credit Woman. I will assist you in learning to manage your credit, money and debt to create opportunities in real estate, job creation/retention and overall financial health. I have actively assisted clients in credit counseling, money management, debt elimination and negotiations. In other cases, I have assisted small business owners who have “mixed credit scores” that interfere with their ability to secure business contracts. I have a proven track record of helping others improve their credit scores and I educate and mentor clients with diverse circumstances about using credit properly to gain access to wealth.

I obtained my BS Degree in Civil Engineering from Howard University. I then worked as a Project Engineer for the City of Philadelphia for 15 years while investing in real estate and helping potential clients with their credit. I was featured in the November 2007 Essence magazine (with my partner) regarding real estate investment.

Currently, I am proud to be a ‘Cover Girl’ on the 25th Anniversary edition of the Women’s Yellow Pages of Greater Philadelphia. I can be heard most Mondays on Gospel Highway 111oam on The Empowerment Zone (presented by individual business owners) discussing issues that affect the community. I present throughout the area at various meetings, workshops and conferences on credit counseling. I have written numerous blogs on credit, been featured on Internet radio programs and have made appearances on WURD, WOGL and other radio stations to give advice on credit. I was honored to be awarded a 2012 Community Service Award by Senator Vincent Hughes' office. And I made my TV debut in June 2013 on Comcast Money Matters.
