๐ Meet Your Dean: Dean Tamara Angelique Thomasson
Poundcake University Students, it is an absolute joy and honor to welcome you to the heart of baking science and culinary excellence! I want to take a moment to introduce myself, share the passion that fuels this university, and show you who your Dean is behind the batter.
The Dean's Journey: Education and Faith
My name is Tamara Angelique Thomasson, and I am a proud daughter of York, South Carolina, having graduated from York Comprehensive High School. My educational foundation was built at South Carolina State University.
I recently graduated from Colorado Christian University and, yes, I am still very much a student! I am currently matriculating through a rigorous dual program to earn my Master of Divinity and my Doctorate concurrently. My faith and commitment to lifelong learning drive everything I do, both in the classroom and in the kitchen.
The Genesis of Poundcake University
My deep, abiding love for baking has always been part of me, but the fire was truly lit when I had to pay tuition! As the saying goes, necessity is the mother of invention. Baking quickly shifted from a cherished hobby to a devoted profession, inspired by an article titled, "Dean, I Love to Bake." That passion is the foundation upon which Poundcake University stands. Every crumb, every rise, and every perfectly glazed crust represents dedication and the realization of a dream.
Beyond the Batter: The Deanโs Personal Style
As your Dean, I believe in manifesting joy and beauty in every corner of life. When Iโm not perfecting a batter ratio, you can find me indulging in a few passions:
โข Design & Decor: If I weren't running Poundcake University, I would be an interior decorator, specializing in staging homes for realtors. I love transforming spaces and creating environments of beauty and elegance.
โข Collections: I am an avid collector of all types of wines and have a habit of collecting beautiful, interesting thingsโyou might say Iโm a collector about things! Specifically, I love collecting elegant cake stands, decorative serving platters, and fine wine glasses. My go-to spot for finding unique treasures is SHEIN.
โข Statement T-Shirts: If you know me, you know the number one thing I collect is statement tees. I love my T-shirts to make a statement, reflecting my mood, my mission, or my faith!
โข Farm-to-Table Vision: I love going to the farmers market for my baking needs, but this upcoming spring/summer (around February/March), I have a new venture planned! I intend to start planting and growing various melons, including all kinds of watermelons. The plan is to sell the melons and create fresh, delicious juices and other delicacies from the harvest.
I look forward to sharing this unique journey, from the classroom to the garden, with all of you. Thank you again for enrolling in Poundcake University. This is going to be a great year of growth, discovery, and delicious achievements! I can't wait to see you all matriculate and reach that glorious graduation day.
