Tara Shelton is founder and creative director of creative agency for start-ups, Dream & Do. The agency has since worked with over 220 start-ups to turn their business ideas into brands. In 2017, Dream & Do launched a business of it’s own, Little Succers, Australia’s first succulent and cactus gifting service. This expanded out to a unique event concept, 'Build Your Own Terrarium Bar' which is like a lolly bar for plant lovers, inviting people to design and build their own terrarium.
Tara launched her first business in London, Moi Self, a girls helping girls gifting range.

She won 2016 “B&T 30 under 30 award” in the entrepreneur category.
