A former Army Medical Laboratory Technician with a B.S. in Industrial Engineering and an M.B.A. in Management of Technology, Tirza founded The Thermogram Center, Inc. in Colorado in 2002.
​
In her earliest years, she responded to the overwhelming question from clients, “what can I do about the inflammation seen in my thermal imaging?” and published Better Breast Health – for Life! in 2005. Two new editions of the book followed, but 2026 compelled a makeover, resulting in a new title for the 4th edition, Take Back Control of Your Health.
