I briefly had an opportunity to work with Teresa on a black mountain project. During that short period of time she left a strong impression. Soft spoken, kind, and considerate. We need many more, Teresa´s in the world.

Teresa was such a joy, positive person, and extremely knowledgeable about strategic planning, defining a mission or vision, and working with Boards in the educational world. I always enjoyed Teresa´s extremely effective facilitation skills. She was truly unique and very gifted. She will certainly be missed. My sincerest condolences are extended to her family.
