The TED story

Life as a TEDx'er began for me in September 2012 when I began planning the first TEDxRenfrewCollingwood (2013). What a journey it was. I learned so much, met a whole bunch of amazing people, laughed a lot and cried a bucket. The event was incredibly successful and rewarding and was followed by TEDxRenfrewCollingwood in the Fall of 2014. Due to the success of this event, our team wanted to expand and cover a larger geographic area so TEDxEastVan was born with the first one happening in April 2016 and our next one is currently being planned for Sept 2017. Attended TEDActive in 2015 and the amazing TEDSummit in 2016. At the Summit I met a personal hero of mine - Louie Schwartzberg and I was lucky enough to collaborate on a projection project with him in Vancouver that Summer. The outcome of this was Facade Festival and the work can be seen here http://www.go2productions.com/portfolio/facadefest/
