TEDx Organizers

Equity, listening, generosity, chit chat, humanity, sharing, and going around / coming around.

Creating platforms where voices, stories, and ideas can inspire real change. I’m passionate about leadership, innovation, meaningful conversations, youth empowerment, and designing experiences that leave lasting emotional and intellectual impact. I enjoy bringing people together from different backgrounds to challenge perspectives, spark curiosity, and create moments that resonate long after the event ends. Beyond organizing, I’m deeply interested in storytelling, creativity, human connection, and pushing boundaries to transform ambitious visions into reality.

My students: If it were not for my students I would not be on this amazing journey. I am also passionate about service. I love serving the community around me and organize projects on a regular basis. My final passion in life is agriculture. I am an Iowa farm girl and proud of my roots.

My family, my profession and helping others unlock their unrecognized potential.
