Teresa is active in many aspects of creative practice as an acoustic/electroacoustic composer, multimedia installation artist, opera singer and film scorer. Originally from Newfoundland, Canada, Teresa's creative works have received awards and support from the Canada Council for the Arts, British Columbia Arts Council, Bravo Fact and have been presented at international conferences, film festivals, and galleries.

Her current postdoctoral research with the International Institute for Critical Studies in Improvisation (IICSI) at Memorial University of Newfoundland expands on her work in non-linear creative systems and the use of environmental data as a co-creative apparatus within an immersive and improvisational audiovisual system.
