The TED story
I've organized 6 TEDxPineCrestSchool and 2 TEDxPineCrestSchoolWomen events. I've attended TED Summit 2019 in Edinburgh, Scotland and TED Global 2017 in Arusha, Tanzania. I've also attended TEDxCoconutGrove, TED Talks Live NYC, and TEDxLivePremiere. I use TEDxTalks to teach rhetoric and have my students take part in their own TEDx event as a culminating project for AP English Language.
