CURRENT MISSION

Finish my master's program and get a job!

ABOUT ME

ok, I'm Terry and I pretty much can't walk anywhere without either bumping into something or tripping over myself. This is probably because I'm either a mild klutz or trying to make the people I'm with laugh.

PHILOSOPHY

you only live twice.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The only way to describe this moment is "religious". There is nothing in this world more beautiful than standing on top of a snow covered mountain, 7100 feet above sea level and listening to the silence.

^^ A bit cheesy, but try it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I taught visual arts to high school students during my undergrad so I'd be happy to extend my talents to hosts/guests.
