Terry Mandel has spent her career helping diverse clients in healthcare, technology, nonprofit, and other sectors build bridges between their aspirations, operations, and communications.

Terry is a first-generation descendant of German Jews who fled Köln in November 1938 and a second-generation descendant of Belarussian Jews who fled Minsk and Pinsk at the turn of the 20th century. During a brief trip to Germany to lay Stolpersteine for her mother and immediate family in October 2022, she had several profound experiences that laid the groundwork for The Unerasure Projekt, launched in California and Germany in 2023.
