Terri Ayanna Wright hails from Baton Rouge, Louisiana by way of Houston, Texas, and has called NYC her home since 2011. She is an honors graduate of the Ailey/Fordham BFA Program, with a major in dance and minor in computer science. Ms. Wright has toured internationally with Ailey II, and has since been granted opportunities to produce performances, choreograph, and teach all over the world. Ms. Wright continues to perform as a freelance artist, currently in The Met Opera's Porgy & Bess, choreographed by Camille A. Brown. She is a recent honors MFA graduate of Parsons in Design & Technology, with a focus on 3-D motion graphics, motion design, and motion-capture. This has allowed her to expand her storytelling capabilities through the marriage of dance, digital video, and visual effects. She founded her production company, HeartFelt Wright Productions, on the grounds of helping others to produce video-based and live performances, from ideation to post-production. Ms. Wright is also a dancer, production assistant, and co-editor for HopeBoykinDance. You can catch Terri teaching beginner modern dance (Horton-based) every Sunday and Wednesday virtually at Ailey Extension Online!
