Tera originally comes from a small town in Arizona. In a town with little to do, she spent most days on walks trying to find new streets with new houses to admire. At the age of fourteen she saw skyscrapers for the first time and fell in love with cities and building as an art form. Since then she found her way to Seattle to complete her BA in Architecture at the University of Washington to pursue her passion for a career in design.

In her spare time Tera loves working with her hands and isn't afraid to explore new things. She spends her time drawing, painting, making small furniture pieces, writing, caring for plants, playing her bass guitar, developing and printing photography, and still goes on walks looking for new neighborhoods and buildings to admire.
