Teresa Thomas

Internship Coordinator, Pathways Program

About

I was born and raised in a small town northeast of Indianapolis. I have lived in several different states throughout my adulthood allowing me to land here, in Omaha. We just recently moved to Bellevue and we are loving being back in a “small” town. I have 2 children, 3 dogs, 6 chickens, and a husband. I enjoy hiking, reading, and relaxing on the lake. 2021 is my first year with Quest Forward Academy.

Why I Chose to Work at Quest Forward Academy

I chose Quest Forward Academy because it’s an opportunity for me to instil a sense of career readiness in youth and help prevent unemployment at the adult level.
