Terri Knight

She/Her

Board Treasurer

I have built a 35-year career in accounting, focusing on system processes, budgeting and cost v benefit analysis.  I support the core mission of Kickstand by focusing on the costs associated with carrying out the mission, and ensuring the resources available are used most efficiently to achieve our goals.   I am proud to see us flourish during these difficult past few years.

I have been involved in Portland comedy since 2007 and have been in the same room as Portland luminaries such as Ian Karmel, Brad Fortier and Dylan Rieff.  I pivoted to storytelling and have appeared in Pants on Fire, Seven Deadly Sins and Daria’s Confessional Cabaret.  My current goal is to win a Moth story slam.

I served 14 years as a Minds Matter volunteer; an organization dedicated to helping high achieving teens striving to be the first in their families to reach and succeed in college.

I also spend a lot of time in my home yarn studio, learning new techniques and methods of creating beautiful, wearable art.
