Terasa started her career as a dancer and then landed a job at Jupiter's Casino when she was just 16. After 18 months at Jupiter's, Terasa won a job as reporter on the chlidren's show "Agro's Cartoon Connection". After a year on the road as a reporter, Terasa was offered the job of hosting the show, alongside Agro. While working on "Cartoon Conection", Terasa also hosted Brisbane's movie review program "Popcorn". This led to a weekly TV and movie gossip segment on Brisbane radio station B105. After three years in Brisbane the show moved to Sydney for 12 months before it ended. She was then asked to do a few spots for "Sydney Weekender" before being offered the job on "The Great Outdoors", where she plans to stay for quite a while. Terasa has appeared in FHM magazine a number of times and is ranked as one of their favourite models.
