Immigrating to the United States at age seven, growing into a
working actress by age 17, starting on a multi faceted career
path spanning nearly 35 years in the entertainment field.
Working steadily in theatre, film and television, tch sought even more outlets for her artistic expression. Though appearing in an Academy Award winning film, and an Emmy Award winning television series, tch found her autonomy moving behind the scenes. Writing, directing, acting, shooting, editing and composing the score of her own projects, puts tch in the realm of a true auteur.

Teresa also performs on stage as a guitarist and singer/songwriter. She plays solo, but was the guitarist and vocalist for Los Angeles power trio, tch & mAdmAx.
