Teresa Lawrence, Owner/president, Delta Personnel, Inc., www.deltapersonnel.com

Teresa was born in Cuba and went to the United States as a child in 1973 to escape tyranny. She began working at the age of 14 by bagging groceries, and eventually worked her way up to the position of advertising account executive and an executive at a large architectural firm. She & her husband took over a staffing agency, knowing nothing about the industry. In 2000, Teresa became the sole owner of Delta Personnel and faced Hurricane Katrina in 2005. She struggled to keep the company afloat and has continued growing ever since that time, more than tripling their revenue.

The company currently does business in the US but would like to explore South America.
