Teresa is a proud Tulsa native and 2025 graduate of The University of Tulsa, where she earned her Bachelor's in Psychology with minors in Sociology and Early Intervention. During her time at TU, she was a dedicated student leader, serving as a Peer Mentor, University Ambassador, Trauma Research Assistant, and officer in the Vietnamese Student Association. These roles sparked her passion for leadership, systemic change, and creating inclusive spaces where everyone feels seen and valued. Teresa is excited to bring that passion to her role as the Housing Equity Analyst for Family & Children's Services – Women’s Justice Programs, where she will work to identify housing barriers and destigmatize support for justice-involved women and their families. Outside of work, you can find her lifting at the gym, playing pickleball, vibing at concerts, or catching up on her favorite anime.
