The TED story
In 2013 I had the wonderful opportunity of participating in TEDGLOBAL2013 Think Again. It was one of the most wonderful experiences of my life, what ultimately moved me to organize TEDxTrastevere here in Italy. It is one of my most rewarding experiences as a humanitarian. Having the opportunity to contact people from all over the world, give them a space to recount their stories and ideas, and seeing the people of my community enthused by all these stories and ideas that often times have changed the world in a positive manner was its own reward.
Things you might not know
I love sports, art, cinema, and projects that positively affect society thanks to the use of knowledge and technology.
