Hi. this is a young female triangulate cobweb spider. Steatoda triangulosa species.
They are not medically significant. Pretty much just another house spider.
Species Steatoda triangulosa – BugGuide.Net
Not S. triangulosa. I’m not even convinced that’s a Theridiid.
This does look like a very young juvenile making it hard to ID.
It may even turn out to be Araneidae. The only other I can think of as possible.
I tried to bring out the eyes and claws best I could, but still uncertain.

Due to the features and environment its on, Im fairly sure this is a False Widow. Steatoda Genus
The eyes don’t really fit though. I have no idea what it is. It’s really small going by the screw mark in the picture so it could be an immature orb weaver or something else entirely.
After looking at it again and reading all the comments – it seems to be an Orb Weaver
