Keynote Speaker:
Tamara Clark
Treasurer/CFO, United Women in Faith
We are excited to have Tamara Clark, Treasurer and CFO of United Women in Faith, joining us for Annual Celebration 2022 as our Keynote Speaker! Join us in welcoming Tamara!

Tamara Clark is a peacemaker at heart. She was born and raised in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, into a nurturing and close-knit family that was and still is active in the community and church. At a young age she became involved in the ministries of Mid-Town Parish United Methodist Church, where she sang in the choir, helped lead the youth ministry, and was secretary for the local United Women in Faith’s group. She credits her church and women’s group with helping her to develop spiritually and telling her not to be afraid to lead.

Clark is a graduate of Temple University’s Fox School of Business. She is a certified public accountant who started her career in public accounting. She has since worked for two United Methodist annual conferences — in Eastern Pennsylvania and Wisconsin — and was elected treasurer and CFO of United Women in Faith in October 2019. She is grateful for the opportunity to work for an organization whose work she is passionate about.
