TEDx Organizers

I’m passionate about making sure technology and policy reflect human values. As someone who survived dictatorship and displacement, I believe deeply in the power of governance that protects rather than controls. My passion lies in connecting research, storytelling, and public dialogue so that lessons from Cambodia can inform global efforts to defend democracy, advance ethical AI, and amplify voices too often left unheard.

Teaching and empowerment are my passion. I always see a liberatory potential in human interactions with lot of scope to harness social capital buried deep beneath such social interactions. Life and living. Going places, meeting people, celebrating differences. Seeing young minds progress and blossom in their lives, enriching themselves all through via mindful mentoring.

Raising Hosanna, my son as they way he dreams to be giving him all the support he needs, everytime.

I’m passionate about creating space; space for healing, for growth, for visibility, and for futures that weren’t designed with us in mind. Whether it’s founding organizations that center the Black experience, building self-sustaining communities for the displaced, or amplifying voices through TEDx, my passion lives at the intersection of service and strategy. I believe in legacy over likes, and that the most powerful change comes when we stop waiting for permission and start building our own tables. My passion is people; and making sure they feel seen, supported, and capable of rewriting their narrative.

I’m passionate about using science and innovation to solve real-world problems and create a meaningful impact in my community. I love empowering young people, sharing knowledge, and building platforms where bold ideas can inspire positive change.

I’m passionate about women’s empowerment, gender equality, and creating inclusive opportunities that allow individuals to reach their full potential. I strongly believe that when women have equal access to education, economic resources, and leadership positions, societies become more innovative, resilient, and sustainable. My interest lies in understanding how social structures, cultural expectations, and economic systems influence women’s participation in public and professional life. Through my academic research and involvement in international projects, I aim to explore ways to reduce inequalities and support more inclusive development. I am particularly passionate about encouraging young people—especially young women—to become active participants in shaping their communities and economies. By combining research, collaboration, and social initiatives, I hope to contribute to a future where gender equality is not just an aspiration but a lived reality.
