I have pursued creative endeavors from an early age. I was privilege to attend the first "Commercial Art" class in Linden, NJ at Vocational Tech. I also studied music, photography, fashion design, modeling, and creative writing. Today one of my passions is composing poetry and designing photo gifts. I write so as to inspire, comfort and uplift the spirits of all who experience the words of my soul.

​

Having faced the challenge of raising a respectful, intelligent young man, as a single mother, and was blessed to do so successfully. He in turned has blessed his mother with (7) grandchildren whom I adorably refer to as “My Heartbeats”. (I have also been blessed to find the love of my life who is my husband, Henry E. Busby, who supports my work, my life and my love.

 

Of all the artistic pursuits of my life I feel as though I have found my calling with poetry in 2014 when I produced and published my first commercial work in the form of a calendar which has been well received.

 

My prayer is that my inspirational poetry brings as much joy to the readers as I achieve writing it.

 

As I have progressed artistically these last 8 years, as I extended my line to include Unique and Special Personalized Photo Gifts that Touches the Heart of those receiving them. Transforming a photo into a Beautiful Keepsake. Creating products that has meaning is my aim.

 

A wise man once said “When you do what you love, you’ll never work a day in your life.” Seeing the smiles and joy that my Creative Designs put on the faces and in the hearts of my customers is my Reward and I’m Blessed to be able to enter into the hearts and homes of so many.

 

I am now the CEO/Entrepreneur, Self Published Writer, and the Business Owner of Teria's Personalized Photo Designs

 

My focus is to one day find my Designs in all Homes to bring a Smile to Faces each time they glimpse at my Heartfelt Creation.
