Terresa graduated from Christopher Newport University with a Bachelor of Arts in Sport and Wellness. She taught middle and high school science at a Christian school before her first child came along, and then she worked in children's ministry for a season. Terresa has spent the past 21 years serving alongside her husband in the ministry, Young Life. After spending many sweet years homeschooling her four children, God opened up an opportunity to step back into the classroom to teach high school and middle school science at Atlantic Shores Christian School. God called their family back to homeschooling and Terresa back into children's ministry as the Children's Director at Centerpoint Community Church. She is grateful for this season and the privilege to continue teaching one of her passions, science. Terresa loves spending time with her family and being with her church community, and when she has a free moment to herself, she enjoys quilting, reading, and organizing!
