About the Artist
Teri literally went from Orphan to Engineer with an unfortunate hand being dealt she was and still is inspired by poets such as Maya Angelou, and Nikki Giovanni, Indie Arie, and Lauren Hill. She read their stories and realized life doesn’t end because of tragedy instead it was based on choices.
Teri’s past gave her the fuel to succeed and strive to be better than what others perceived her to be. Her famous quote is "It’s not where you come from, but where you decide to go". This quote reminds her that she does not look like the hell that she has been through, and that troubles never last always. Teri has mixed her love for writing, and music in one creating a sound uniquely different yet popish and neo soul. Her music is defined with truth, passion, pain, and love telling stories that only lies within her.
