Like others at Nuffer, Smith, Tucker – including President Bill Trumpfheller – Teresa Siles climbed the NST ladder beginning as an intern and now serves as a vice president and director of social media. Since her start in 2001, Teresa’s leadership, forward-thinking, results-oriented mindset and lively spirit have made her an integral part of the company. While we’ve known for quite a while what a stellar public relations practitioner Teresa is, we were delighted when San Diego Metro found her achievements worthy of a 2012 40 Under 40 Award.

At the end of September, Teresa was recognized at SD Metro’s 40 Under 40 Awards Ceremony and several NST team members cheered her on at the event. This recognition from SD Metro puts Teresa in the company of other former 40 Under 40 winners at NST – Bill Trumpfheller, Mary Correia-Moreno and Derek Danziger. We’re a tight-knit group here at NST, so it’s great to see one of our own recognized for the hard work she does day in and day out.

With a 40 Under 40 Award under her belt and NST’s recent wins at the Bernays Awards ceremony, there’s only one thing left to check off Teresa’s list of achievements – an Executive Masters of Business Administration degree. Hang in there, Teresa, you only have a few months left to go and we’ll be rooting for you the whole way there.
