About me
Hi I'm Teresa!
I'm a Jersey girl currently working in New York City and living in Long Beach.
From a young age, I became obsessed with the world of graphic arts and found myself learning how to design, code, and craft web-based experiences before I hit middle school.
From a young age, I became obsessed with the world of graphic arts and found myself learning how to design, code, and craft web-based experiences before I hit middle school.
I received my Bachelor's degree in Communications Design from Syracuse University and completed a specialization course in User Experience Research and Design from the University of Michigan.
With 10 years of experience in the dynamic industries of TV, media, and advertising, I've made it a priority to constantly learn, adapt, and expand my skillset.
When I'm not designing, I enjoy spending time with my two cats, walking on the boardwalk, listening to podcasts, playing tennis, and watching the best and worst that TV there has to offer.
