Tia graduated from community college in 2007 with an associates degree in business and commerce technologies and ended up working for her father as a contract negotiator for the drivers that are currently driving for the organization that either wants to have a contract extension or needs something in there in order for that contract extension to happen, possible new drivers that are of great interest from her father to have that driver to join the organization, and even negotiate the contracts for the sponsors that have joined with her father's race team.
Tia's Twitter account is @RaceHardWinHard, where she uses it to talk to her friends and fans of NASCAR.
