The TED story
I have been a TED fan for years. After joining TED OTP in 2015, besides scientific topics such as transportation and traffic which closer to my background, I also challenged myself on other interesting topics– sports, education, economics and etc. Except for the talks, I started to focus more on those brilliant people and ideas in TED Conferences. I was greatly impressed by some outstanding Persian translations that delivered the essential ideas in an appropriate and dramatic way. I am really glad to work with other language coordinators and volunteers who have been inspiring me by their talent and hard works and feel honored for being the translator of many great TED Talks.
