Dr. Terica is an entrepreneur, consultant, and advocate who served in some of the largest urban school districts across the country. She has 18+ years of experience as an educator and leader in Memphis, TN, Washington, D.C., Baltimore, M.D., and Nashville, TN.

Her own K-12 educational experiences in Memphis City Schools, the Catholic Diocese of Memphis Schools, and Shelby County Schools have all primed her to be a voice for those often found on the margins. Had it not been for some of those experiences, she wouldn’t be able to identify with the realities that many students face today in our schools.

In 2018, she founded APEX Education Consulting Solutions, LLC to address the needs of learners in the K-12 community and beyond. APEX is a small, locally-owned, and certified Minority-Owned Business Enterprise in the city and county.
