Teresa Ho

2013

Teresa Ho '98 MBA currently serves as the CFO of Artemis IT in Melbourne, Florida. Teresa was born and raised in Colon, Panama, and moved to the United States to attend FIT after one year abroad at the University of Nottingham in England.

Teresa started her career with Artemis as the company’s office manager, later being promoted to director of business operations, and then to her current position as CFO. During her tenure at Artemis, she has managed the company’s HR and financial initiatives as the business grew from five employees to nearly 60 full-time staff. In addition to daily fiscal management, she was responsible for the financial integration of both an acquisition of a local telecom interconnect company in 1999 and then the strategic merger with NetDirective Technologies Inc. in 2012.

She states that her drive, passion, and work ethic come from lessons learned while working in the family business in Panama. However, it is her education at Florida Tech that she credits with arming her with the tools required to achieve her professional success.

Grateful for the success they have been afforded, Teresa and her husband, Travis, are strong community advocates, support many local non-profit organizations, and encourage entrepreneurial initiatives countywide. It is, however, the arrival of their 21-month-old son that is the pride and joy of their lives.
