The TED story
My TED story began in the vibrant city of Prague during my final year at university. It was there that I co-founded TEDxUNYP, a small event that has blossomed over the last 8 years into the largest event of its kind in the Czech Republic. This journey has been nothing short of extraordinary, taking me through the organization of 7 awe-inspiring events. Along the way, I've had the privilege of coaching and mentoring over 80 speakers, each with their own unique story and insight. Together, we've captivated audiences far and wide, amassing more than 5 million views on YouTube and filling over 3000 seats with eager listeners. My TEDx journey is a testament to the power of ideas worth spreading and the incredible community that brings them to life.
Things you might not know
People don't know I'm quite the cook in the kitchen. And, when I'm not experimenting with flavors or presenting on the TEDx stage, I'm probably reciting 'Friends' dialogues by heart. I can virtually take you through every episode, making me a go-to for any 'Friends' trivia night!
