Most recently, he has played in "Hell Cab" at the Elephant Off Main theater in Hollywood.

Terrence caught the acting bug as a kid, but his inspiration and impetus to enter the show biz arena was cemented when he saw Denzel Washington playing Dr. Philip Chandler in the 80's hit "St Elsewhere". Terrence later played an ER doctor on the still running Lifetime show "Strong Medicine" recurring a dozen or so times the first two seasons 1999 and 2000.

He can soon be seen in theaters in the untitled "Onion Movie" due for a 2005 release.

Terrence has also appeared in several TV commercials including Mercedes-Benz, Gap, and McDonald's. Television credits include spots on the aforementioned "Strong Medicine" as well as "Married with Children", "I'll Fly Away", "The Shield", and "Cold Case".

He has had the distinction of working with Diane Lane, Kim Fields, Janine Turner, Rosa Blasi, Gerald McRainey, Johnny Gilecki, William Peterson, Dermont Mulroney, Virginia Madsen, Sally Struthers, Orlando Bloom, Kate Beckinsale, Katey Boyer, Holly Robinson-Peete, Steven Segal, Michael Chiklis, Ed O'Neill, Katey Segal, and Flavor Flav to name a few.
He has been directed by Robert Townsend, Peter Horton, Cameron Crowe, and Spike Lee.
His newly formed production company, NUBIART is currently working on it's first production "Blue Highway."

Terrence would like to thank everyone who ever had a kind word and voice of encouragement.
