As a seasoned educator, teaching has always been at the heart of what I do. I discovered my passion for teaching at the tender age of 16, when I started working with a group of young children. Witnessing the impact I could have on their impressionable minds was a turning point in my life. One of the most profound moments in my career was when I had the opportunity to guide a young girl who once saw herself as nothing but a vegetable seller. I helped her see the world from a new perspective, and today she is a thriving entrepreneur. This experience fueled my purpose in life, which is to help others grow. To expand my reach and impact, I took on the challenge of organizing TEDx events. TEDx provides a platform for individuals, both young and old, to share their ideas and perspectives on the world. The process of preparing for and speaking at a TEDx event has transformed the lives of many. It has enabled people to break out of their comfort zones, embrace new perspectives, and grow beyond their wildest dreams. It is a privilege and an honor to host these events and to see the positive impact they have on so many lives. As I embark on my 4th year as a TEDx organizer, I am more committed than ever to empowering others to grow and succeed. My goal is to continue hosting TEDx events for as long as possible, providing a platform for those with unique ideas and perspectives to share their voices and inspire others. Let's grow together!

My passion is to help people grow. Especially, our next generation leaders.
