Note from Terri:  This short bio is misleading without also hearing about the highs and lows along the way.  I didn’t just skip through life and amazingly get these fun opportunities.  I worked hard, I dreamed big and I had epic fails along the way that taught me much more than some of the wins.  Those lessons learned are a big part of my story, and why I’m dedicating some time to speaking up.  I want to inspire as many people as I can.
