A 20-year South Lake Tahoe resident and mother of five, Tamara Wallace studied business at Lake Tahoe Community College and is a graduate of UCLA’s Institute for Organizational Management. She says South Lake Tahoe is trying to balance the medical and mental health needs of the community with socio-economic realities—and it has been a struggle during the COVID-19 pandemic.
