Terri Peters is a journalist who loves mixing food, travel, theme parks, and parenting into her work. Her words have appeared in Business Insider, Allrecipes, and Travel + Leisure. With past gigs as Senior Editor at Yahoo Life and Contributing Editor at TODAY.com, she brings a blend of expertise and enthusiasm to her writing. She’s won awards for her writing and was the mind behind Deglazed, Yahoo Life’s celebrity food interview series.

Terri sometimes writes about her alcohol-free lifestyle and believes that everything is better sober. Her favorite part of being a journalist? Meeting people and telling their stories. When she’s not writing, you’ll find her enjoying her tiny Florida beach town or exploring Central Florida’s theme parks. Donald Duck is her Disney spirit animal, and she looks forward to Universal’s Halloween Horror Nights all year. Among her great loves are her cats, reading, and eating potatoes in any form.
