From an early age, Terrence has always been interested in exploring the physical world around him. He has an inquisitive nature that drives him to explore and challenge the status quo. He credits this quality with leading him to graduate studies in Chemistry and a career in the sciences. Terrence has had a wonderful time exploring the chemical world that has included stints as a University professor directing graduate research, product development in the photographic/imaging sciences arena, and for the last quarter century pharmaceutical development. The latter took an interesting twist when he became involved with efforts to promote cross industry collaborations on scientific problems.
Terrence has long held the view that creativity is equally important to the scientist and the artist. His creative outlets outside the scientific realm include photography and woodworking. He enjoys seeing common objects from a different perspective. Terrence loves to travel and trying to capture the essence of a new place or event in still images is a strong motivation in his photography.
In the wood shop, he designs, and builds a variety of pieces including furniture, toys and household items. Perhaps his most ambitious project to date has been a cedar strip canoe. Terrence credits his late father with introducing him to the art of woodworking, and instilling in him a love of working with his hands to create items that are both useful and aesthetically pleasing.
