About Terry

Hello, I am born and raised in Detroit and also a dual citizen of Canada. I got into the wonderful world of acting because of my presence in the music industry. As a singer, songwriter, recording artist I have been recording and releasing music since my teens. I debuted in the film "Deliver Us From Eva" through Sony and then a few years later decided to embrace acting fully/alongside music when I played "Tyme Prentice" in David E. Talberts, "Love In The Nick Of Tyme". It started as a major touring stage play then live feature film released on media such as Amazon, Netflix and National TV.
Since then I have played roles in numerous indie films most which have went on to be featured in film festivals and win awards. I have also produced two festival shorts including one audience choice win and a full length documentary that has been released internationaly . Most recently I played "Joan of Arc" in the TV show for Netflix/Dreamworks: "The New Sherman and Peabody Show". I play key roles in the upcoming 2016 feature film releases of "A Silent Cry Aloud" and "The Choir Director".

Unique traits: I am also a singer/songwriter. I have experience in martial arts and some stunts. I am a dual citizen of Canada and the US :)
