Terrence is a son, brother and caregiver. Since establishing himself as a strategist, facilitator, and community builder in the public, private, and non-profit sectors, he's developed his ability to advocate tirelessly for the greater good. Among his biggest influences is his younger brother, who lives with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. Terrence has learned to understand the unique needs of patients and caregivers after caring for his brother for over 30 years and his mother who died of stage four lung cancer a year ago. He is currently the Head of Partner Success at Braze Mobility, which developed the world's first blind spot sensors for wheelchairs. He is also the co-author of the book Bold Spirit Caring for the Dying. Terrence has been influenced by these life experiences to become a change agent and an advocate for accessibility, dying well, mental health, and inclusion.
