"a Filipina writer, author, artist, and a storyteller with a straightforward and unfiltered view of the world."
Hi, I am Teri, a multi-passionate creative. In most years of my professional life, I am blessed to have enjoyed a handful of hats that gave me a glimpse of the capability of my being. However, I know that there is more to those hats. — Divine Purpose.
My unconventional self-expressions about life design what I do. So I eventually learned to embrace these parts of me and turned them into a fusion of purposeful passion.
In my element, writing and creating is my haven where I build my dream of leaving a fine print in the lives I touch. Therefore, with a heart of a child, I travel life, curious and raw, finding answers and purpose. My old soul tells me there is too much to discover and learn. And there is, indeed.
The world talks a lot. So I listen to the loud messages it tells me. While secretly holding my tiny dream, I religiously stay aligned with the Divine. I know that I am being led to my divine path.
Life moved me in many different ways over the years, though. It still does. Deeply. Divinely.
So who am I? — To the World, I am a woman of strength. That, I guess, is my trademark to most people. To me, though, I am a magical, beautiful disaster. And to others who have yet to know me, a chronic mystery, I am. Thus, my pen name is “mst3ri” (MsTeri).
WORK & PASSION
A brief look at what I do:
01 By profession, I am a full-time freelance multi-media writer who delights in multi-media content creation from copywriting, editing, scripting, and captioning, to publicity and branding.
02 I am also an aspiring inspirational writer and author, helping people get empowered. Through the years, I have been an inspirational mentor to individuals about empowerment, surviving trauma and abuse, relationships, and living a life of divine purpose.
03 In 2021, I authored and published my first ever Tagalog book, “Mga Kwento ni Inday kay Dodong” which narrates a story of love, friendship, and dreams.
04 For the fulfillment of my divine purpose, I will continue to work on writing some, if not more, inspirational books, blogs, and other content for people who needs practical insights, guidance, and empowerment to live by.
05 Unknown to many, I am a dedicated advocate for Human Rights and Animal Rights. Respecting all life forms is our social responsibility and our sacred duty. I highly believe that we should not take this role for granted.
06 I have a deep passion for Arts. I consider myself a fluid artist and creator, not contained in just one form. Art is boundless, which is what I like about it. I continue to explore its language and use it for my divine purpose.
07 In the past, I managed corporate events and entertainment (both local and international) for multinational firms, ranging from concept, organizing, creative direction to overall management.
08 For the love of freedom, flexibility, curiosity, wellness, and balance, I embraced the digital nomad life where I gracefully do my passion and gradually fulfill my purpose.
12 RANDOM FACTS
On the lighter side:
01 I am a true-blooded Cancerian with moon in Virgo. So proceed at your own risk (haha!).
02 Strangely, quality hot coffee calms me down and fuels my creative juices. Add waffles or pancakes and a lot of salad, too! (yum!)
03 An OC-minimalist-angel here until chaos distracts me (yikes!).
04 Meaningful travels are my thing. I love learning new things from different places and people. Travel, wherever, takes my soul in a higher vibration.
05 I am a happy, proud fur mom. I believe I was born for the role.
06 My art keeps me focused, especially when I’m distracted. My writing, though, keeps me grounded when my brain is all over.
07 Ironically, a homebody here, too, who loves to read, watch shows or movies, listen to music, learn, create, organize, exercise, indulge, reflect, and get active with my time. Not a fan of wasting time.
08 I effectively write in late afternoons and evenings over instrumental jazz and classical music. ‘Must be the sunset, and the moon as well, influencing my brain cells! (haha!)
09 I am a sucker for deep conversations with deep-minded people. I am not a fan of unhealthy small talks.
10 I love gazing at the sun, the moon, and the stars. Sometimes I feel I belong in the vastness.
11 Josh Groban and Michael Buble make me cry in a good way.
12 I like cucumber. But I really hate pickles. How weird, huh? (eeww!).
