CREATIVE STRATEGIST

And she has been creating websites and designing for web and social media since 2013, with well over 10,000 hours of experience.

Even the techiest topics are made easy by Tere. Whether she's facilitating a marketing-campaign brainstorming session, teaching a social-media workshop, or prepping a CEO for a panel or speech, Tere combines her friendly, patient, down-to-earth style with practical, step-by-step, not-too-techy guidance.

Pronunciation
Pronunciation
TARE-ee, teh-RAY, or TEER?
With an oddly spelled first name and a last name that's not pronounced like the food conglomerate, here's a little help pronouncing Tere's name:
Tere (TARE-ee) rhymes with Mary and Larry. Just like those who spell it Teri or Terri, Tere is a nickname for Teresa: in her case, the -sa is simply lopped off.
The -ou sound in Stouffer has the same sound as house, scout, and about. (It does not have the -ou sound in dough, soul, and poultry.) House, Stouffer. Scout, Stouffer. About, Stouffer. Easy-peasy.
