The TED story
I was a sophomore in college when a classmate of mine, Chloe Philpot, told me about this opportunity she was bringing to our university. She invited me to help organize the TEDxETSU event she was holding the spring and I've been invested since then. Now, I'm reapplying for our TEDx Organizer License to hold the event again next spring.
