Terri is a native of Oklahoma. Her professional background was in nursing but transitioned into the business field. She holds a bachelor’s degree in business administration and a master’s degree (MBA) with a focus on Administration Leadership.
She started singing solo’s when she was a little girl alongside her father and his local Gospel Quartet Group and has been singing ever since. She developed a love for singing praises to God and never stopped. As she grew up, she began leading songs for the children’s church choir. At age twelve she asked her parents for a piano and her desire to play was so strong that her parents bought her the piano. She would set for hours after school picking out songs one note at a time until she could successfully play “Jesus Keep Me near The Cross”. Little did people know; God was already preparing her for ministry.
Terri formed her first group singing with her sisters (The Lewis Singers) and was well known for their sincerity and for ushering in the Holy Spirit. When they sang, the anointing would fall, lives were changed, and they were never the same.
As she continued her walk-in singing, she became the Minister of Music in her local church then on to Praise and Worship leader for over twenty years. Terri is now a developed singer and has devoted her life to sharing good Gospel Music, with excellence wherever she goes.
Terri has appeared on many Concerts, Conferences, Workshops, Musicals, Revivals, Bobby Jones Gospel TV Show, Singsation, The Word Network, and Church Services locally and nationally and internationally.
