She also taught professional development courses in science to elementary school teachers throughout the state.

After some time with Raytheon, she found that engineering work didn’t satisfy her need to connect with people or her desire to help others. She left the field of engineering and took a job as a paralegal at a personal injury firm hoping to get some exposure to the practice of law, and quickly discovered that she found the work fulfilling and rewarding. Teri went on to attend law school at Arizona State University, where she was a senior editor of Jurimetrics: The Journal of Law, Science and Technology.
