The TED story

Knew about TED because I was invited to a TEDxRiodePiedras meeting. I helped organized the event, then we organized the TEDxSanPedroSulaWomen event for the first time in 2015. Then we organized the TEDxSanPedroSula 2016 and the TEDxSanPedroSulaWomen in 2016. So, basically I was introduced to the TED culture by my TED friends from TEDxRiodePiedras.
