The TED story

My TED story started in 2019 when I volunteered to work in the organizing team of TEDxObor. I loved the process, the contact with the speakers, the amazing opportunity to promote ideas worth sharing but not so well known so together with a friend, we decided to do our own TEDx so we applied for TEDxBaneasa license. It was complicated to organize our first edition, because of the Covid-19 context, but we succeeded and we are now preparing for the third edition of TEDxBaneasa.

Things you might not know

People have no idea that in my spare time, for mental relaxation, I knit. I am self educated in this field, learnt it all by myself with youtube tutorials and it is one of my favorite forms of self regulation at the end of a busy week.
