About Terri

I have always enjoyed working with and being around creative people. My love of design started when I was young. My first design was a haunted house in my family’s garage for the neighborhood children on Halloween. This is my true passion where I really thrive. I am looking for the opportunity to bring my skills to the table. I am hard working and a quick study. My Interior Design Degree and my Theater work as a Set Design Assistant really amplified my designing skills.
