The TED story
In school, TED was my paradigm for public speaking in my endeavors with theatre and creative writing. I identify with the sharing of ideas and stories across cultures and borders, and participating as a translator is my way of giving back to this cause.

Climbing! You'll always find me training hard in the climbing gym and fighting my way up the wall outside. I've traveled to gorgeous locations both domestic and abroad in pursuit of the sport, becoming part of an international community of adventurers.
