Office Lead: Teresa Rivers

Teresa Rivers is a retired Lieutenant Colonel and Program Manager from the United States Air Force, bringing with her a distinguished career rooted in leadership, strategy, and service. Today, she continues to make an impact as a Senior Acquisition Consultant with Emolbi, where she supports a Space Force program—extending her expertise into the evolving frontier of national defense.

Since joining VETS2INDUSTRY in 2020, Teresa has been an integral member of the Marketing Department. Behind the scenes, her contributions have helped amplify the organization’s reach and ensure that critical resources, events, and opportunities are visible to the veteran community.

What sets Teresa apart is her passion for supporting transitioning service members. Having navigated the shift from military to civilian life herself, she understands both the challenges and opportunities that come with it. That perspective fuels her dedication to helping others find their footing, build confidence, and access the tools they need to succeed.

Her impact is felt not only in the work she produces but in the lives she helps shape along the way. We are grateful for her continued impactful service.
