Terri was born in Ohio, USA. Her father is from Puerto Rico and her mother is from Spain. She experienced God’s call as a teen and she is still excited by the adventure of following Jesus...
She is convinced that he is the way, truth and life for everybody, everywhere. She grew up bilingual and discovered in the Bay Area an incredible richness of culture and diversity. She continues enjoying her ministry which includes being a teacher in a theological program in which she teaches theology to Spanish speaking adults who are often holding leadership roles in parishes in the Bay area. She is a beautiful musician that has recorded a great array of songs written by her or other members of the Verbum Dei community. Her voice is a gift ( sometimes accompanied by her own Spanish guitar playing) that many have come to appreciate over the years during her retreat work and prayer groups/ Fraternidades and few can believe it is the consequence of a self-taught artist. She is currently living in San Francisco.
