My TED journey started in 2010 when I came across a few TED Talks online, my best at the time was Chimamanda Adichie's talk "Dangers of a single story". In 2019, I attended and volunteered for my first TEDx event, TEDxIkenegbu in Owerri, Nigeria. Since then, I have been a strong advocate in promoting TED and TEDx. I have been part of the organization of about 5 TEDx events both as a core team member and licensee.
