Originally from Chicago, Teri moved to Kansas City in 1994, where life brought many an unexpected adventure. After almost 11 years on the air in KC radio (Oldies 95, 101 The Fox, Star 102), she left the corporate world and began to pursue her first love full time again - music. Her self-titled first CD had come out in 2002, and was a foray back into songwriting after many years of singing other peoples’ tunes. These were songs inspired by life in general, always with a positive spin. “If I’m going to write lyrics, I want them to make me - and others - feel good, or better.” In 2005, she began writing specifically for the New Thought churches where she’d been singing for a decade. Out of that came her next 2 CD’s, “I Choose Joy” and “Magical Moment”, rich in inspiration and good vibes. From her current home in Santa Fe, she continues to write music for churches, seminars, retreats, and conferences, and her songs are heard across the country in support of these and other events.
Never one to sit still, Teri travels the country singing at churches, giving keynote concerts and presenting workshops, and has also created a line of inspirational jewelry called “Wilder Things” (a.k.a., "Spiritual Bling", available at her live performances). Her dedication to raising the vibration of the planet is a theme running through all she chooses to pursue. Her infectiously positive personality and quick wit will hold your attention and open your heart.

She’s the voicemail voice on your Sprint Phone (“You have one new message.”) This voice has been used in the movies “Old School”, “The Sentinel", "Pineapple Express", and an episode of “The Office.”
Teri is a voiceover talent, with national spots to her credit (WalMart, Betty Crocker, Disney, GMC, Blockbuster)
As a proudly demented cast member of the radio/comedy show, “Right Between The Ears,” Teri flashes her comedic talent, taking on voices and roles that most people in their right mind wouldn’t dare approach!
Teri studied improv at Players’ Workshop, the precurser to Chicago’s Second City. These skills show up ... well, wherever she does.
She has a background in professional theater. Some of her favorite roles - Annie Oakley in “Annie Get Your Gun;” Princess Winnifred in “Once Upon A Mattress;” Rowena in “Biloxi Blues”.
While in radio, Teri wrote parody songs for the morning shows, including creating lyrics for instrumentals like “Green Onions” and “Pipeline.”
