The TED story
I am a TED enthusiast! I LOVE learning emergent ideas and expanding my worldview through global perspectives. I enjoy featuring TED and TEDx speakers in my compilation newspaper, Connecting With Purpose. One of my COVID-period joys was becoming a TED Circles host and connecting with purpose peeps around the globe through the bridge of idea sharing! It is quite fulfilling to be a curator of ideas among my community and highlighting diverse speakers, content and innovative, bold thoughts.
