Author, Content Creator & Digital Marketing Expert

Hey, there!

I'm Tara McKenna

If you're new around here, let me introduce myself.

 

A few years back I started a blog called The Zero Waste Collective. Across social media, I grew my community to over 450K. I also grew an email list with thousands of subscribers, worked with 100+ brands on paid collaborations, and gained some celebrity followers and shout-outs along the way. ZWC became expansive and global!

Plus I wrote a book, Don't Be Trashy: A Practical Guide to Living with Less Waste and More Joy, published by Penguin Random House. I've had extensive media coverage and interviews, as well as numerous public speaking events.
