In 2001, Tina accompanied her husband, Dr. Thomas Campbell, to the University of Zimbabwe Medical School Clinical Research Center in Harare. On this first trip, she was able to gain first hand knowledge of the devastation the HIV/AIDS epidemic had wrought in Zimbabwe. Her basic love of African art and a second trip to Zimbabwe in 2003 with her husband and his associate, Jane Oppenheim, was the inspiration for the formation of the ZATA Project.
Tina graduated from the University of South Florida in 1984 with a Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration. Upon graduation, she became a sales representative for Moore Business Forms in Denton, Texas. She was soon promoted and spent 2 years in management. She was promoted to District Sales Manager and transferred to Colorado Springs, Colorado in 1988. In 1997 she became Operations Manager of the Denver Sales Office. The company was purchased by the R.R. Donnelley Company in 2002, and Tina works as an Account Representative.
Tina and Tom have three sons, ages 10, 11, and 15, who also keep her very busy.
