Meet Teri
Buying or selling a home is one of the most important decisions people make, and I believe clients deserve an advisor who combines expertise, empathy, and clear guidance. My background spans technology, advocacy, and real estate, and each experience shapes how I approach helping people navigate major life transitions.
A Technical and Strategic Background
I bring a deeply technical and strategic perspective to real estate after spending 36 years at Intel Corporation in a wide range of roles. I began my career as a design engineer and eventually moved into leadership positions, finishing as a global marketing manager working with teams around the world. Throughout my career I developed a passion for solving complex problems, using data to make smart decisions, and communicating clearly with people from all backgrounds. Today, I bring that same analytical mindset and attention to detail to real estate—helping my clients navigate important decisions with confidence.
Advocacy for Invisible Illness
I’m also deeply passionate about raising awareness for invisible illnesses, especially Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) and Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS). After raising a daughter who lives with these chronic conditions, I gained firsthand insight into the resilience required to navigate complex medical systems and the importance of compassion and understanding for those facing health challenges that aren’t always visible. That experience shaped my perspective on community, accessibility, and supporting others through difficult journeys—values that continue to influence both my business and the causes I care about.
Real Estate in My Roots
Real estate has always been close to home for me. I come from a family of realtors and relocation executives, so conversations about homes, moves, and helping families transition to new communities were part of everyday life growing up. I’m now a licensed Realtor and recently went through the custom home building process myself, which gave me valuable firsthand insight into the complexities of buying land, designing a home, and working with builders. Whether you’re buying your first home, selling a property, relocating, or building something new from the ground up, I’d love to help guide you through the process and make it as smooth and rewarding as possible.
Every move tells a story—whether it's a first home, a relocation, a custom build, or the start of a new chapter. I love helping people navigate those moments with clarity and confidence. If you're thinking about buying, selling, or building in North Carolina, I’d love to hear your story and help you take the next step.
