Plz make sure of your answer coz this person is a senior official and I believe they will be offended if I addressed him in the wrong form. Thanks for your help.

I'd say woman.
All the men Terrys I've known were with a y.
If you don't want to mess up, just write Dear Terri Lomax. OK I just read the last post with the link, definitely go with "Dr. Lomax".

It could be a name for a woman and for a man, but more used for a woman, but making no mistake address that person with: Dear Terri ...
