Bio
I think knowledge is the most precious treasure that we are able to accumulate while we are alive. My favorite sentence was said by Mahatma Gandhi: "Learn as if you were to live forever" and I believe that you have to transfer what you've learned throughout your life in order to become wiser. In my opinion the ones who retain information for themselves are foolish because when we share we learn even more.

I'm passionate about everything that can make you feel alive.
An idea worth spreading
"The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do." - Steve Jobs -
I strongly believe that TED speeches inspire people to be the best version of themselves and by doing so create a entire generation of remarkable women and men. Being a TED translator is more than rewarding, it is a life changing experience, because lifting others we reach even higher places.

The TED story
I had my first contact with TED in 2013 when I was studying abroad in Australia and since then I can relate over the years turning points of my life to TED talks. I have also been teaching English since 2015 and I just can't imagine how would be my listening classes without TED. Finally, becoming part of TED translators program has been amazing and I hope to do my best
