Before founding Studio Samuel, Tamara Horton was the Operations and Events Director at Sony Music Entertainment, overseeing US offices for over 13 years. However, as soon as she and her husband adopted their son, Samuel, who's of Ethiopian descent, her life has turned a complete 180 degrees. She left her post at Sony Music Entertainment and went on to help change lives as the Founder and Executive Director of Studio Samuel, an organization that helps Ethiopian girls learn basic life skills and be able to afford free education through scholarships.
